O.K. I swapped a 94 usdm b18c1 into my 90 teg ls, which included engine, wiring harness, and ecu. kept my ls trans. My good friend and mechanic (owns his shop) did the wiring (started the first turn of the key, whew!) now I have a problem with hitting 4,000 rpm on the highway. Heres what it does; i hit exactly 4k rpm and it boggs like a rev limiter until it hits 3,500 rpm and kicks the power back in, it only does it once in a while. engine light comes on periodically, codes are as follows: speed sensor and electric load unit. Now i bought a speed sensor and everything lined up in the trans, where the mechanical speedometer was ( speed sensor code still comes up) also to top it all off, i connected a fields vtec controller and when its on, the vtec point makes the car jerky and backfires ( what the F#$% ). Now I can't run the car past 4500 rpm if i remove the vtec controller completely from the harness ( I did buy the fields harness that fits between the ecu and wiring harness, so i didnt cut the harness) same thing its jerky????? one last thing the car doesn't pull after 7,000 rpm, it just revs out? ( iknow it doesnt pull like my 92 gsr did)

PLEASE HELP< ANY IDEAS

 

IS THIS SITE FOR REAL? IS THE NAME CORRECT "HONDA TECH"? I POST A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND NO ONE HAS A CLUE! ALL I READ IS PEOPLE TALKING **** TO EACH OTHER, AND STUPID QUESTIONS LIKE, " DUDE, HOW FAST CAN YOU GO IN YOUR INTEGRA?"

TECH IS SUPPOSED TO MEAN TECHNICAL SUPPORT, HAS SOMEONE FORGOTTEN THIS?

 

well 1.. you need to get the ELD from a newer integ.. i think it starts in the 92 and up...your friend has the wiring thing all wrong...i sugest you go look into a different shop for it....im hopin your using the gsr ecu

 

You need to lose the attitude....

 

its got to be the wiring or your ecu , you need more info , does the check engine light come on? what codes are you throwing ? the vtec controller might be set or installed wrong ,are you run a pr3 ecu or p72 , go to g2ic.com for more help

also the other guy is right you need to lose the attitude , we dont get paid for trouble shooting , just members sharing knowledge

 

sorry,but you must admit some of the questions people are posting are pointless. needless to say, it is the stock gsr ecu i am using. I even swapped an ecu out of a newer gsr with a skunk2 program and it basically did the same. thanks for your input.

Q. could it be fuel pump related? it is the stock one ( 1990 teg ls w/ 155,000 mi )

 

Its a electrical/hardware issue.

whether or not people make 'pointless' posts is irrelevant. Everyone needs to learn sometime about something. If you have a ******** attitude about a problem, no one is going to help you.

 

thanks for the help. I will let you guys know what I find out.
