Hatch92 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 i'd still take it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lceah Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 if it's such a headache, then why not sell it (you already have someone who wants it) and get another swap... you might go through the problems and keep fixing them and get sick of the whole thing, maybe.

MRH_FLCL_ Posted March 23, 2008 Author Share Posted March 23, 2008 ok so we changed out somthings on the b17 but for some reason it wont rev past 3500...i think its because of the fact that it has a auto ecu in it could this be the case?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubbith Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Not really sure as to why it wont go past 3500, but i'd be willing to take it off your handsJust give me a price... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kegger Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Get an ecu for an OBD-1 B16 and you'll be fine. The reason it's not revving is it's in safety mode. Two things cause that, ECU or distributor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
