i have a d16y8 head on a d16z6 block and its throwing a knock sensor code. According to my research (please correct me if i'm wrong) 92-95 civic ex's (d16z6) do not have a knock sensor. So will replacing my p2p ecu with a p28 and converting from obd2 to obd1 solve my knock sensor problem??thanks in advance

 

yes you should be using the P28 ECU. Since the P28 is not made for a knock sensor engine, it doesn't have the ability to throw a code for knock sensor.

 

sweet but i heard that in cali its not legal to do that or whatever...do you know if thats true??

 

Yes, it's illegal because your are converting an obdII car to obdI. Also, you won't pass your smog check.

 

dammit

 

You do know that your car is already illegal because you have an obdI engine block on a obdII car ?

 

yea i was just thinking that...

 

i did not know that thanks for all the info...
