I'm back with some more questions. I have done some trouble shooting and testing on my crank sensor and my distributor. All my grounds seem to be working properly and all the plugs are plugged in. I continue to get a 01, 03, and 04 code from my 93 probe ecu. From what I have found online these refer...

I can say from personal experience it is alot of work to put the KL-DE in a 4 cyl MX-3. I am just completing this swap and it took much longer than I expected. I used the motor and 5 speed tranny from a probe gt and the engine wiring harness from a MX-3 gs. I still have a few bugs to work out but ye...

I was wondering if someone could explain how to test the crankshaft position sensor? I've seen you should be able to ohm and voltage test them but I'm not sure which wires to use out of the three.

Thanks

Well I jumpered my diagnostic today and it appears my problems are coming from the distributor. I have 2 codes coming from it one being a ground issue and the other being a "No 2 signal". I also have the speed sensor and the front o2 sensor throwing codes. Time to start searching for the d...

Now you've got me confused again.....how would the neutral safety switch and the reverse switch have anything to do with general running of the motor? I understand the speed sensor in the tranny is affecting things but I don't think the others are. Those are the only 3 sensors that I can remember in...

All the gauges work except the speedo. The 5 speed tranny really doesn't have any electrical besides the neutral and reverse switches (currently not wired doesn't cause any problems) and the speed sensor which isn't working right now. I haven't figured that one out yet. The automatic has way more el...

Ryan,
What book are you referring to when you mention page 42ish?

I have a 94 MX-3 originally with the B6 5 speed. I swapped in the kl-de from a 97 probe. I am running the engine harness from a 92 mx-3 v6. The engine harness was off of an automatic car. I used the distributor from the 92 mx-3 v6. The ecu is from a 93 probe gts (not sure what model as the sticker i...

I appreciate your input but I have had a slipping clutch on my previous setup and the car does not move when the clutch slips. The motor just revs as if you are pushing in the clutch. I also know its not slipping because I have "gotten on it" multiple times and the car does nothing but acc...

Now you've really confused me. The clutch is brand new and I don't know how the clutch could have been installed wrong. They only go in one way. Plus how does that make the engine run faster? I know a lighter flywheel makes them rev faster but I've never heard of a clutch making it run faster. Pleas...

My engine is running at a high rpm. At idle its roughly 700-900. When I drive across town (30mph limit) I am diving in 5th gear and still at about 3500-4000 rpm. I can't guarantee I am running at exactly 30 since my speedo isn't working but I know I'm close. I did the swap from a B6 to the KL-DE. My...

Did you have any issues with your rpms running real high?

Well I did some investigating and come up empty. The wiring diagrams show all the wires in the same locations for the distrubutor. Also my intake area is solid. Does anyone know what pins to jumper on the diagnostic plug to get the codes to flash? I can't seem to find anyone with an OBD1 scanner. Th...

I finally have my swap completed and am working on the little issues that came with it. Currently my speedometer is not working at all and my rpms are incredibly high. When I say high I can drive around town in 5th gear at roughly 3,000 rpm (approx. 30 mph just guessing since the speedo isn't workin...

Thanks that makes sense since it looks almost identical to the reverse or back up light switch.
