B20 swap
 

For all you guys out there who have used a stock b20 in your tegs (DC2). Did you guys use the b20 ecu or your stock ecu? Can you use your stock ecu?

stock LS ecu if you plan to keep it non-vtec.

you can use a civic SOHC VTEC P28 chipped ECU if you plan to do a B20/vtec setup.

It's actually not for me. But my friends mechanic said that his injectors are clogged cause he was using the wrong ecu. He was using his rs/ls ecu.

umm......tell your friend to find a new mechanic

i used my stock ls ecu cause didnt havce money to change it haha, but i guess really no use unless you REALLY want that little difference.

use the b20 ECU or have his stock ECU chipped with a b20 base map. b20 and LS have different maps.

So is this mechanic b.s.' us? He said that the injectors are getting clogged with too much fuel.

+1

stock LS ecu will make a B20 run leaner.....not enough to melt anything but it's deffinatly not "too much fuel"

^ That's what I thought. Now I'm just wondering what's wrong with his car. The car was driving fine, then he pulled into his driveway then the car just died. He then tried to start it but nothing. It was chocking but not starting. Can this possibly be the starter relay?

does it crank? if no then it's the starter/battery/cable connections.....one or all of those 3.

if it cranks you need to check for spark. ignitors are common for burning out which will cause a no start.

ah ha ha ha ha lmfao im with u . man i love these forums

It cranks. I'll provably have to see the car myself so I can give you guys the situation.
