Is there any tricks to remove pins from the plugs on the ECU. It would take a week for me to get a pin removal tool from honda. Any suggestions?

 

Really really small screwdriver like the one used for eye glasses. That's what I used but I've done a lot of different pin removals before besides on ECU plugs. You just have to understand what you're trying to do then it's really easy.

 

On the obd2, you have to lift up the center section first, then take a little screw driver to remove the pin.

 

on obd0 plugs i just grab a set off a junkyard car and cut em apart, i can never use a pin tool properly
