It aint for a/c i do know that. A vaccum hose goes from throttle body to this valve. Then from that valve to power steering pump & then back to valve. Then to anouther valve thing at back of motor & then here & there, lol.

welcome to the state of the union as mandated by the Sierra Club, democrats, Greenpeach... oops... 'peace' and everyone. every step to make it better turns into the next step that makes it worse.

heck... even Al Gore didn't believe in global warmin and terrorists in the early 80's.

Out of an '88? Well, that makes sense. No real significant changes were made until '89 and on.

The adjustable valve.....where are your power steering vacuum lines routed to? The valve abecedarian is suggesting....those should also be hooked to it...aside from the A/C VSV. Does your donor engine have one of those or not?

Can you get any pics?

Glad everything is working out so far for you. Too bad for us, though. We may have just run out of debating material.....

thook

The other valve thing at the back of the motor...hmmm. On my '86, that's the location for the fuel pressure up VSV.

What you are looking at, though, is the idle up valve for the power steering and A/C.

Issues

I need a diagram of these vaccum hoses & valves. Oh, and so far so good on my harness hooking up. Just fighting to get wiring through intake to plug up injectors & etc.

thook

Oh....good luck doing that without pulling the intake.

Would pictures help you at all? I've got a few from my rebuild.

Issues

Well looking at it, after the hoses go from that valve to PS then back. Then go to that valve at back of motor you are talking about, then from there to the fuel rail. Trying to up load photos...

we haven't even brought up your pajamas yet...


on the other hand, I'm glad that should I ever need heart bypass surgery the doctors arent running this hose from here to there and then this other line from the front to back and installing a tee...

Issues

Yeah pics may help & this harness is working against me. Wasnt easy getting it out. Now its even worse getting ran back through. Grrrrrrrrrrr

LMFAO, well if you ever do need bypass heart surgery let me know. I'll take care of you. And if i do have any problems while im fixing your heart i'll just get on here and ask these boys, lol.

thook

Okay.....that is the fuel press. switching valve. Should it pose any problems in the future....while under heavy load....hook the vacuum line to switching valve directly to a port on the intake and block off the port the line was running from on the adjusting valve. If you're not using A/C, it won't matter.

BTW, you'll need to put the adjusting valve on the new motor with atleast the power steering lines hooked up to it and the one to the TB. That way you can adjust the vacuum load the PS pump will place on the engine on tight turns at low RPM's.

Sorry, I'm having a bit of trouble with my pic program at the moment (PC issues my wife keeps telling me she'll fix). It may have to wait until tomorrow. Again, sorry.

thook

Hey!!! How the hell d'you know about my jammies?! We can just leave those out of this discussion. My plaid's just fine, thank you.

Issues

Hey thanks, that is the info i needed. I'll be sure to swap it over. Ive gotten everything hooked up harness wise. But im going to call it a night. It was like 99 degrees here today. But it feels nice out here now. So me & the little woman are going to take a ride on the motorcycle. Again, thanks for the info thook.

thook

Oh, okay. And, I just got the pic thing working....lol. Well, let me know if you need any at any point. Hopefully, I'll have what you can use.

Good luck on the injector harness. Don't forget the plugs on the AAV and the temp sending switch. They tend to hide.....so to speak.

if motor swaps and anything other then "STOCK SAME OR NEWER YEAR AND SAME CAR TYPE AND SIZE" was even a tenth of the truth then why is it just why is it that when all these honda poeple that go out qand get a cheap honda and put a big integra b18 or a b20 in it and when they go out a race and get pulled over the cops dont go ok pop your hood and see that its not stock and far from this "illegalness" that you people speak off how do they get tags on there cars when they go for emissions? oh wait i forgot cause its not true im one of these "honda" guys i used to have a 87 crx si with a b16 dohc vtec and yes i passed emissions even with a test pipe on the car and no cat but wait i though they wpould have took my car from me and said that its illegal yeah ok ill belive that when my turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbet!!!!!!!!!!!

@just a 22re-
just because it is the law, doesn't mean it is enforced.
either report it, or get over it.

just a 22re

thats what im saying lol


get over it if it bolts up bolt it if it dont weld it and if welding dont work theres jb weld a roll of duct tape in the back of the truck ya know lol

Issues

Well the motor is in & running. But it does have a miss though. Ive checked everything ignition wise so far. And im going through vaccum hoses & all now. But i havent put a timing light on it yet to check timing. Going to do that next, just gotta find out what that is. Drove it & it did run strong but has that miss still. The miss is constant, just whop whop whop. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, i felt this motor install was going to smooth. When i had it running just a few mins ago i pulled the plug wires one by one & that sure isnt it. Upon pulling wire it really would miss then. And every one effected it. I was hoping to find a bad plug or plug wire, but no luck. It is very responsive & it is strong running like i said, but it wont be 100% untill miss is gone. Any ideas guy's?
