Okay, as some of yall remember, i was having a lot of problems with my previous engine, and decided to do a swap. Now, the swap is complete, and everything seems to be straight but theres 2 little kinks leftover to iron out:
1st - the temp sending unit may or may not be out...it registers OVERHEATING less than 1 minute of the engine starting but when i go to feel/check, everything is still cool enough for me to touch bare-handed.
2nd - there is a slight/noticeable bog or lag in the throttle response under 4k rpms.
Now, i talked to a friend of mine, and he said that its more than likely my ecu that may need to be changed? or do i just possibly need a tune? Its hard to tell with this motor...:thinking:
Just for additional info:
~i did a 1990 integra ls (b18a1), and swapped into it a 1994 ls engine (b18b1). transferred the original dizzy and the IM from the old engine.~
~also, one of the tps wires got torn while installing new engine. I got a new tps plug/wires and spliced it to the harness~
