picked up my car today... 1.6 DOHC ZC JDM spec engine. anyways, i'm having trouble with my speedometer and the check engine light is on. the engine runs great and the extra 30 horses feels awesome. the mechanic who installed the engine said that the check engine light was caused by my ECU not being used to the different readings the distributor and O2 sensor is giving off? i dont understand clearly what he was talking about because he barely speaks english. i was wondering if something like this can be solved by simply resetting the ECU (im gonna try it right now)? or would i have to buy a new 89 integra ECU?

thanks






edit: i tried resetting the ECU and it didnt help. i'm taking the car into my regular mechanic to get checked out, but any advice would be great. thanks!

 

uhh..you didn't swap the ECU with the swap? Did he do any work but install the engine?

lol.

 

you need a ZC ecu or D16A DOHC from the second gen teg ecu. the O2 sensor may not be hooked up correctly, as honda has gone from 1 to 3 and to 4 wire sensors.

 

i have a mugen chipped zc ecu from dohc zc. if you want the ecu i'll sell it for $150 bucks, if intrested email at gen4civic1000@yahoo.com
