Note: I already posted this in the hybrid forum, no luck, i've also done a search...

I have a 95 LS-SE, which i just swapped a 98 b18c1 into. Now, the car is currently running on a 95 obd1 ecu (p72), however, the motor
isn't wired to the ecu to run vtec.

I've checked the hybrid site, and have poked around a lot besides that, but i still have some questions.

1) My car's wiring harness doesn't have the vtec wires run to it. Do i just run the wire from the engine to the engine side wiring harness
which plugs into the correct ecu pin? Or do i have to physically run the wire to the engine side wiring harness connector? Or to the ECU
side pin?

for example: I know that Vtec solenoid (yel/grn) has to run to pin A4...can i tap the engine side wire which corresponds to A4, or do I
have to run it to that ecu pin?

Does anyone have any pictures of this done, like which wire ran from where in the engine bay? (Not the pinout diagrams, I have those,
and have a helms)

Also, are there any complications that i might run into while wiring this up?

you can either tap into the solenoid and run the wires directly into the ECU plug, or run the wires to a vtec controller. either will work.

 

...here this pic applies to OBD1 equipped civic & integra's:

Since your car does not have ANY vtec wires, yes you will have to run a wire from the ECU Pin to the VTEC component.

...heh thanks..
.....some people can't seem to see that!

 

katman,
got what you said done not too long ago. thanks for the pic.
