Default ECU PIN removal- how?

I need to move the ECU PIN locations for my swap, 95 B18C1 into 93 CX, but I don't know how.

I went to my Honda dealer, and they gave me a set of PIN removal tooks, they look like small screwdrivers and flat things (?) but I don't know how to use them.

Please help!

Also- anyone that knows about oil pressure sensors and guages, please check out:

1. unplug the connectors from the ecu.
2. have the side of the connector without wires in it, facing you.
3. take your tool, and place it in the hole, and push up on the metal part of the pin. while your pushing up on that, pull it out the other end. it should be very easy to get out if your pushing up on the thing correctly.

btw: your lucky to have such a cool *** dealership that will give you a tool for this.

I guess im special. I used a pin. oh well. If your still having troubles, the ecu plugs can unclip a little. Look at the side with the wires, the top and bottom of the plug will flip up, and the bottom will flip down. I was lucky to have some extra plugs laying around, so i ripped it apart to see how to do it. haha. so if anyone needs pins, I got a ton. with about a foot of wire on it.

I've tried to use the tool and get them out, but I don't think I'm doing it right.

I'm pushing it in, and pulling on the wire, but it's not popping out.

Also, I need pins. How much for about 10, with wire?

I need them ASAP.

E-mail me: Jaromintuning@aol.com

Thanks!

yes, I have paypal. What year car do you have? I noticed that newer cars have weird ecu plugs. You have to pull up the white strip on the plugs, and then try to pull out the pin. But I have 38 Pins left yet. E-mail me if you want any.
