OK, this is a rook question, but I just took out my d16y8 out of my 96 civ ex and I want to put in a b20b...can i use the same wiring harness that's already in the car since I'm using a obd 2 ecu from an ls integra (p75??) if not can you please lead me in the right direction!!![IMG][/IMG]

 

everything u need to work will plug right in

 

Thanks for the response hybridhondasquad, Soon I will be part of the squad Although since I have the ex wiring in the car do I need to worry about the vtec wires? Are those wires just voided?

Thanks again!

 

It should work. I used my 97 dx harness for my b20 swap by just swaping over a few plugs. A ex harness should be easer as the intake manifold some what resimbles the b20 one. just remove harness from car and install too engin. MAKE SURE YOU LEAVE SLACK ENOUGH TO GET BACK TO THE COMPUTER WITH THE HARNESS!!

 

Thanks for the info, did you have any codes(engine light) come up when you first started the engine? Anything else I should worry about? Quick question: Did you wire the harness to the engine first, then drop it in...I was going to plug things in after I had the engine placed in the engine compartment. More tips appreciated!!!

 

Yea I wired up the harness on the moter while it was on the stand and then droped it in the car. Codes i haad and still have them is 91 and 45. You have a ex so you should have a fule tank pressur sensor so no 91. As for code 45 lean no idea i have tried crv fule pump adjustible fule pressure regulator but ill get it out some time just taking it easy, spark plugs look good any way.

 

Could it be that the 45 code is due to the map sensor?? Which one did you use the one from your dx or the crv? Just food for thought, not sure myself
