I have a 98 civic lx, with a stock factory D16Y7 motor/auto tranny.

The motor blows up.

I called place motor came from and ordered a warrantied motor.

The motor arrives and its not a D16Y7.

What arrived is a D15B. I double checked, thats all it says.

I know absolutely NOTHING about this motor other than its a SOHC, 1.5L, 4cy.

Where the hell do i go from here.

Should i just replace that motor anyways and hope everything will fit with no need for modification?

Should I start shopping for a ECU?

Someone educated and who knows what they are talking about please point me in the right direction.

Thank you.

PS:

Under the engine code stamped on the block, i saw this number (3209274).

Is there a way to cross reference this number to a website or something to find out exactly what car the motor came from and if its a VTEC or not?
