    good work there jam a bolt or something down the timing inspection hole onto the flywheel or pull the starter out & put a bolt in there somewhere to lock the crank in place

    Re: My B20a Black Accord Build Thread

    Well today I have done alot.. first of build me a shack, than moved engine there, cleaned engine as good as I cud, changed timing belt, changed clutch and dropped engine in the black accord... was out there 10hours.
    The story goes like that. Guy who I lend engine lift wants it back tomorrow or lats say today already. So I stressed it to get things done, at least drop engine in the car. and its poring rain today, so had to improvise a lill bit. So I build me a shack of some sort, but it worked great hehe.. Than it all begun, timing belt was a bit of a problem, crank pulley was so stubborn but eventually I got it off.. Than to the clutch, took g.box off and the rest (I have refurbished flywheel, but when I saw mine it was smooth like glass so I leaved alone)
    To tell you guys, that washing with teeth brush is great and it works, and you get to most unbelievable places but it is time consuming ordeal.. Well I have some more pic whore here..



    Who said my engine bay was dirty?? lol not anymore its not, got it cleaned yesterday but it was to dark to take picks so I took those today.
    ...before...

    ...after...

    Thanks Mark, I tried to be on top of things today. my back gona pay for that but I dont care right now.
    I first used pink stuff, SilitBang I believe, but that didnt work so great, so I dropped that Idea and used paint thinner, I used spray bottle I had left, fill it up and toot brush magic and one old sweater in files. 2 hours later it looked like that. and Used Silicone in spray box for hoses and wires.

    Wow, all that work for an A20, huh?

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM

    Ok I'm done with the swap, now. I'm done with wiring, but the engine just want crank at all, the lights come on, and PGM-FI light comes and all, but engine just standing still.
    I had one fail, It started to smoke from wire that coes from dizzy to that small fuse of some sort. I turned on, checked, found where the problem was and tryed again but no life from it..

    What it cud be?

    EDIT: here is wire that started to smoke

    Something is wrong.

    This is a device to cancel parasites in the distributor signal.

    If the car won't crank, I would check all the grounds

    Is the ground by the thermostat properly attached?

    No one watch this threat I bet, but I write it down anyway.

    I got engine started now, everything works, but it just want start from ignition key. Dont know what the problem is. I changed wire lom from other car, still nothing.
    I have a Q. I had to cut ground wire to thermostat, because original B20 was to short. I didnt soldered it I just connected it and insulated with el.tape. cud it be a cause of my problem?

    will not cause any problem unless the wires become loose.

    Good that you got it started at least, hope you find what's wrong. Maybe it's the body of the car that's pissed about having an A20 stuffed into it?

    Mark, I'm tired to shover every time I tern a wrench lol and those clothes goes to trash after I'm done with it.
    Today is another day so I'm out working again.

    Randon she dos not running yet, but starts. Not with the key, so I neither need to change igniter and wiring to it or run direct wire from key to starter and see if this will help.
