Awesome!

Great job on the swap man, I am glad it started up and worked out for you.

I also have to chip my ecu still.

[elpuma]

Thank you 87roach. Chipping isn't so hard. There are vids on youtube that show you how to do it.

[89T]

Do you have both blue wires hooked up. The one's that go to the stock coil . One is for the for the tach the other is the ecu.

I went to the paint shop today and i forgot to look and make sure.

Oh it's not the chipping I am worried about, I am a bit concerned about the de-soldering though as I don't have the fancy gun.

What I am going to have trouble with is choosing what software to tune with and then learning that and not blowing my car up haha.

[89T]

I have had great luck with neptune.

I'll try to get to it this weekend. In the mean time i gotta put up with school.

I used a desoldering braid i bought at radio shack and a soldering iron i got from homedepot. Nothing fancy my friend. I did pretty much what this guy did to desolder.

SO is the tw sensor working as the fan switch sensor? Im having the same issue with a halfrad at the moment. The drain bung on half rad is 1/4.

[elpuma]

Yea so far its been working for me.

crome will do wonders for what you "pay"

I ended up getting a check engine light. To check them with the way i have my harness set up i just have to ground pin D04 from the ecu side. Then turn the switch to the on position and the check engine light will start flashing at you. After you finish fixing whatever the code was reset your comp.

Also to properly set your dizzy just let the engine warm up then turn it off. Ground D04 and then start the engine. Use a timing light and get it to 15 degrees. Turn off car reset comp and you should be ready to go.

I still need to work on my tach but this week imma be busy writing papers and taking exams.

Just a quick video i made on my way to the library.

did you get the tach working? i don't see it moving??

[mushroom_toy]

tw sensor will not work at fan switch on my accord.

May be different for diff year models or options, not sure though.

[89T]

Almost any temp switch will work. You dont even have to have a honda sensor. Ground one side then the other is you'r switched ground to a relay.

Come to think of it... you dont even need a relay for that.

On my 86, the stock fan switch works, or I can straight wire it and that works. Every other way Ive tried including the tw sensor that is in my halfrad, does not work.

Sounds good man,I wanted a magnaflow but couldn't afford it so end up with a flowmaster 44.It to loud though so gonna add a glasspack as a resonator.Hey are those leds in your gauge cluster.

pm me with exactly what you are looking for.

[obdriver6]

Looks like its running good!

[elpuma]

mushroom_toy any temp sensor should work like 89T said. The a20a1 block i have has a sensor in the back near the black box. I believe that's another temp sensor as well and was thinking of using that as my fan switch. I'll check that out later.

ShyBoyCA6 I haven't had much time to look into it yet. Getting close to the end of the term and professors are hammering me down with exams and papers this week and the next.

import racer they are leds. I bought them from http://www.superbrightleds.com/

[elpuma]
