i keep getting a CEL? WTF???
first off before i forget, here is my setup: 88 CRX HF, B18A1, Zdyne SECU Gold, turbo'ed...think thats all..
the other day my car threw a CEL #1, no problem just reset it.... throws it again later that day, k so the O2 is accually bad. swap it for another (used) that has worked before...threw a code... **** it i will just go buy NEW one [throws #1 again on the way there]. come home and install it and it DOES IT AGIAN!!! well i have been having another issue with my tach not working so i swapped out my engine harness with another one (both 88 HF harness both known to work and have been used in this car, origanal is back in) TACH WORKS! throws O2 code still! [just proving its not wiring like the tach]
after every time it throws a code i reset the ECU by pulling the hazard fuse.
what the hell is up? i try 3 differenet O2's, wiring looks fine and didnt have a problem till i started spinning the clutch?
so any ideas? im sure its something stupid im over looking (usually is). need to get this solved before i hit the dyno.... thanks!

Yep, defiantly sounds like a wiring issue.

Re: i keep getting a CEL? WTF??? (doublejz)
try unscrewing the MAP sensor a little, and move it back towards the intake...cuz there is sum play in it and this will cause your ecu to throw a **** load of codes...
this exact same thing happened to me then imoved it back, and screwed it in tightly all the sdden my idle is normal, not buning so rich n e mor, and o2 sensor works?
make sure u reset the ecu after doing it tho.
good luck
P.S. map sensor is very touchy.
