hey guys
motor is in etc etc...

few problems im having

engine light is on

and sometimes the car idles at 1500 and it seems like its needing more gas to it..

could it be the ecu that i need to buy??

 

first off i would check the cel code. this can be done by jumping the 2 pin connector on the pass. side of the drivers compartment, underneath the glove box. shut the car off, put a wire in there,then turn the car back on but dont start it, and count the blinks. the first set of blinks will be long, thats the first #, secong will be short. so a code 23 will be 2 long and three short. then use the codes at the very top of this forum to reference the code, and go from there

ok well im gettin a coughin sound from the motor now
its dark time so i cant check now

 

What ECU are you running? How many wire O2 sensor? And did you wire up the vtec?

Also try switching up, if remember right, TPS and MAP plugs because both of those sensors got the same plugs.

 

im running from d15b7 motor
i swapped it in
all plug and play

now i think my starter died!! it takes so long to start up
then i start it up and u hear it like revin high it revs at 1500

i think its the ecu tho?

 

which ECU are u using? and is your car 5spd or auto? and is the ECU 5spd or auto

 

yeah if you are using your stock d15b7 ECU I think that's your problem.

 

a stock d15b7 (p06 ecu) will work. So long as its setup for the right transmission (auto or manual)

 

it works
im using stock ecu from d15b7 5 SPEED

but its lagging

also i noticed when i go into second at high rpm it grinds 2nd gear

before it never did.....hmm
but this motor came with a clutch too so it could be that..

 

recheck all your wiring and vac. lines

 

oh I forgot that d15b7 has p06 ecu. My friend is running that on his d15b but it's chipped for ZEX cam.

Did you try switching MAP, and TPS plugs? It makes the car hesitate when you step on the gas.

 

all the wiring is fine
i took it to a mechanic

he checked the sensor he said that could be it or it could be the ecu
cause the engine wants more gas
