So due to the lack of work i decided to try the head swap my self. Everything went fine and i got to clean up a few things as well. I followed a diagram for the dizzy and i think thats my problem.

Does anyone know how to properly wire up a odb2 plug to a odb1 dizzy. Im not sure the diagram i got off honda tech is right. If anyone knows of a link that would be great.

I know i have fuel, i know i got air just no spark, and i know the cam and crank are lined up correctly.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

no one has done this? i have looked at a few links but nothen is explained to well. can you even put an odb2 plug on the dizzy? im trying not to cut the harness and keep the plugs all the same but if i have to i will cut it.

Zeeman would be the man to bring the car to in this situation. He's the wiring kang

ya i know he was supposed to do it but money is tight.......but i figured it out and got the dizzy working. BUT the timing is off and didnt sound to good. This mini me bull shat is a pain. i guess the timing marks for the y7 head dont apply for the z6 and everything got all messed up. Now i have no idea where its supposed to be so i think the y7 head is going to the machine shop and getting put back on...........all this to save a buck, what a nightmare.

if anyone in the durham area knows this setup by all means i will pay you to come fix it lol, im just fed up now.

D.T.P

I may be off but can't you use z6 dizzy and splice an obd1 plug into the harness?

well that's what I ended up doing and of worked fine. Problem was getting the timing set. Long story short I gave up and got my y7 head machined flat and it going back on. I know the guy at the machine shop and he threw in some little extras like porting the exhaust because he felt bad for me for having such a small motor. Jokes on him when I eat his 4000lbs pos chevy LOL.

So as of now the my first mini me was was a no start. I have a d15 b7 bottem end tho in my shop. Anyone know if that's worth keeping? I would like to do a vitara setup. I know the bore is the same as the 1.6 but the crank ends are smaller.... So I don't know if you can get eagle rods or not. That's for later project anyways.

I'm heading out to high velocity on Friday if evrything goes well for a tune and an ebc. Hope everything goes well, I have had the worst luck lately.
