yah, the D16 ECU will run the engine, but please don't run it very long.... it will be lean and will damage the engine if run it like that for any length of time.
if it misfires you have something hooked up wrong. Is the check engine light on?

i wouldn't go with the d16 ecu for a b18 power plant. i have heard of ppl using the gsr ecu with a b16, but not a d16 ecu for b18. you wil have to adj. the timing, but thats given i wouldn't run it to be safe, thats just my opinion.
