Default Civic 96 Dx B20 swap P28 Cel code 15

I swapped a B20 i had on a integra 97 ls into my civic 96, before that the motor was running fine and had no codes while i used the p28, after i swapped it into the civic, i turned on the check engine light and verified it was the cel 15, it started jumping revs from 800-1000 and when I accelerate it it kinda bugs down.

Any help will be appreciated.

Either loose connection to the distributor or replace distributor. That would cause the bogging.

What engine harness and distributor are you using?

I leaved the harness the civic had, and the distributor is from a b18 wish it had before and never changed it.

The problem surged after the swap being the harness the only thing that changed so I think the problem lies in the wiring, but i could be wrong.
