i just swapped a 90 zc into my 90 crx dx using a pr3 90 integra rs computer and i'm overheating even though my fan is kickin on i seem to be 180 degrees of on my crank pulley with the timing light my check engine light is flashing code 9 which is no.1 cylinder position sensor which is the crank angle sensor which i just rebuilt with japanese internals. if any of you have hade these problems or similar ones please help me i've invested way too much time, money and effort into my car to see it all go down like this. please help any and all comments will be greatly appreciated. thanks.

 

I have the same problems cyl position sensor. I have replaced everything in the ignition. with brand new parts. It's at the shop getting wires chased currently. good luck though

 

All I can suggest is that I know the most common ECU's run with ZC's are the actual ZC ECU, PM7, or a PG7 from a '86-'89 Integra. I'm not sure if that would help the problem, but it is a suggestion. Don't worry, I'm sure someone will be able to help, and if not, check out http://www.thezcr.com. The site is dedicated to that engine.

 

code 9 is your exhaust cam sensor that is next to your distributor...ts the little box you had to extend two blue wires too, first i would switch the blue wires, you might have them reversed...if that doesnt work get one from a 88-89 integra...

wow its only two wires, and you probalby have em reversed and its not part of the distributor...

 

Been there, tried that.

 

Been there, tried that. car ran fine for a while and then started having issues.

 

so buy a used sensor off a teg...

the zc swap is so ******* easy with wiring, i dont see how you can **** it up...

 

I am aware of how easy it is, about 6 wires. Sensor is brand new from acura. I bought the car as a shell so I don't know what is issues it already had. I love people who have no clue what the **** they are talking about. Car run great for a while. Hey crxgator, I guess the wires un-soldered themselves and then switched, re-soldered themselves and then even shrinkwrapped back together. stupid ****

ok, then with all the money you spend on some guy to fix it, you can buy a brand new harness from honda and call it the day, and you wont have any wires that were fucked to begin with...not my fault you bought a car that was fucked from the begining, your the stupid **** that did that not me...

 

switched wires rebuilt sensor last night on the way to the sore for a pack of smokes the rev limit started hittin at like 3500 rpms now the bitch hardly wants to start.
