first drive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8R9LyRjJ ... rofilepage
it sounds good but it runs like shit. i cant track down the problem. im pretty sure its in limp mode. i still have some twerking out to do but at least its kinda drivable.
Not sure if it's the exhaust but to me it sounds like you need a valve adjustment.
Also, are you running a 4wire o2 sensor? Or just the standard o2?
What codes are you throwing? Check with motor running and again without the motor running.
That ticking sound your hearing is my header tinging the craddel. I notched it out some but once the motor mounts set in it barley hits. And only every now and then. I currently don't have an o2 in because the harness is wired for a 2 wire but the motor requires a 4 wire. I'll have to splice the o2 into the ecu, but that wouldn't cause the car to run like it's running.( i don't think ) I tried to pull codes but didn't work....since my tach isn't working I think the problem is in the dizzy.
nope the o2 isnt the problem because the rywire chipped ecu has a bypass for the o2. it was the harness i was using. i used my stock d15 harness and wired it in. car runs great. im gonna fix the exhaust and weld it up then ill have a vid up of it running.
latest update:
grabbed some new rims for $130
no more 17s! still gotta lower it so theres no wheel gap but this was just a test fit to see if i liked them....ill get some more pics up soon!
looks like you got the big valve b20 based off the tall dip stick and heat shield. head should have the casting number p8r to be sure. as for the sleeves being thin, they are however our last b20v survived a whole race season on a 100 dry shot with no issue on a stock bottom with just arp equipment. also noticed your from indianapolis....i just moved here in avon and would love to get up with more fanatics. as for the linkage question, i cannot say what the OP used but hasport among other companies make the correct linkage for the swap. you can also shorten a set of DA linkages to work. length depends on what mounts but it seems ive shortened most by 1.25"....if you use the older place racing mounts (unsure of new style) you shorten by an inch.
yeah im in indianapolis but getting ready to head to texas for a month or so for the holiday. but ill be back up here before spring time, we could hook up or something, you need to come downtown to 31 and see everyone out cruising. im using da shift links, LS tranny, hasport motor mounts. i dont plan on running anything major on this motor because its my daily. cold air, header, exhaust, thats it. id like to clean my bay up some but working on getting suspension for it right now.
THANKS, Glad I helped you out! I love it, runs strong, and very reliable. Ill be updating this very soon, I still have so much more planed out for this car. If you ever have any question PM me ill help you out as much as I can!
Nice wagon. Just curious, is that a B20B9? When I got my B20 it looked exactly like that--with the long dip stick, giraffe mani, upper heat shield and crazy PS brackets. Yours is the only other one I have seen.
its a B20B with P75-3 head. im not sure what you mean by b20b9. motor is out of a 2000 crv
Just wondering because my block stamp is B20B9 and was from a Honda SM-X, but it had all the same accessories like yours. Mine's from overseas. Just thought maybe yours was too.
@ WagonClaws im not really sure where im doing with this motor, power wise. probably keep it as is for right now while i worry about the other little things. Ive got a Mishimoto half length radiator with fans and Inovative shift linkages because mine are really sloppy because the bitch pin on theme is messed up and the bushing is junk.
