The ecu,
P13 dictates it is from a 93-95 prelude vtec,
I could not figure out which version it is besides that going buy trustdestructions ecu list.

Google search of the full number comes up with that it is Jdm but for an auto.

If that's the case I'll have to figure out if it has been converted for manual

The cel that I'm getting is code 23, knock sensor.

Got to looking and it's not hooked up and I'm having trouble finding the plug to hook it up.

Started a thread here : https://www.hondacivicforum.com/foru...ad.php?t=87956

Couldn't find the wire within the bay, so.....

I made a connector and wired it strait to the ecu.
No more code 23 but....

Now I'm getting code 12 for egr.
The egr is not hooked up in any way.

What should I do now?
Get it wired up and run the vacuum lines or see if I can bypass the code?

Thx
Dayton

Still have the egr code but will be taking care of that soon enough with a chipped p28.

It's been idling really bad, running rough and missing.

Checked the plugs, they are good.

Today I cleaned the iacv, cleaned and adjusted the fitv and reset the base idle.

Idles nice and smooth, runs great.

Hit Vtec for the first time today while in 3rd gear.

OH MAN!!!!!

Oh yea,
I was driving on the freeway Friday and a car on front of me kicked something up.
Got a hole in the stock radiator, time for a nice 2 core all aluminum.

Not really sure yet.
I found the Godspeed for right around 100 shipped.
Also been looking at some on fleabay, I can get an all aluminum with slim fan on there for 60.00 on up.

Not trying to get "warned" for advertising, but you should go with a Mishimoto Lifetime warranty nuff said IMO.

EDIT: let me know what you do for radiator hoses. I think people are saying that they have used a 92-93 Integra LS upper hose and a 93-97 Del Sol VTEC lower hose without any problems. That's the one thing I forgot about for my swap...hoses.. damn.

The hoses on my car will work.
They are a little bigger in diameter then stock, you can tell by the way they are squeezed down at the clamp.

Did my valve lash today, they where all pretty good.
Put everything back together and the sound I was hearing before is still there.
Put ear to valve cover and follow, noise is coming from the dizzy I think.
Sounds like a bearing almost.
