Civic 2000 D15Z6 engine swapped (Many issues)

[hasankhurshid29]

If it don't then buy the ancel icar2 device,

Here I should buy hondash. As ancel icar2 is available at 3500 and 3 pin to 16 pin is also around 1000 to 1400 so total is around 5k whereas I would be getting hondash in €33 with shipping which is around 6k pkr.
Btw is the hondash still working perfectly?

[hasankhurshid29]

think when I drive to the mosque I was driving very slowly and when it was not starting at the mosque I open the bonnet and there was no water on the engine but still it was not starting. When it start after 15 to 20 minutes cranking again and again then I was not ready to leave the accelerator and then I drive violently and when I reach home there was a lot of water in the engine bay. But I remember when I was at the mosque and It was not starting there was no water in the engine bay

@shabbir.1 bhai
Please also suggest on this. What are the suspects? Car after drying for around 1 hour is working good.

Well if you can get hondash, then nothing comes close to it due to the convenience and set of features that it offers.
I believe, It is much better than Ancel icar2 or any other ELM 327 based scanner.

I have the first version with me and it is working perfectly to date. The data logging function offered by hondash is a very useful tool to monitor any suspected sensor.

Please order two hondash scanners for me as well, I will pay you when you place the order successfully.

If we order 2 we don't get any benefit but if you find one more person, we can get free shipping. Secondly I will be using my father's credit card that will be an issue so better order separately if only you and I want. But if you can get a third buyer and he can buy 3 products we will be saving around Rs 500 on each.

Can't figure it out correctly but it could be due to one of the following reasons (in connection with the rainy weather):

1. battery not supplying enough current due to corrosion on it's terminals
2. Loose or rusty grounding terminal(s) on the chassis/engine
3. water vapours inside the distributor, spark plug wires' end points or any other electrical contact point involved in the starting circuit
4. vapours inside the intake duct

Thanks
Today I went to mechanic all the seal of the distributor cap and wire seal was out of place. So he reseal it and put some grease

What about timing is it accurate?

[hasankhurshid29]

Timing was not checked but how it is related to the rain problem?

[rajaahmed96]

I asked that if your mechanic fiddled with timing. Btw rain water went in distributor? Where is its rubber gasket? It prevents moisture getting in to the distributor.

[hasankhurshid29]

No he didn't fiddled with timing
You can see in 2nd picture gasket is there but it is not properly sealed and it is elongated so he cut it short and put elfee and reseal it. Then after tighting the screw put some orangish grease on it

[Hassan1991]

what is the performance after distributor clean up?

[hasankhurshid29]

what is the performance after distributor clean up

Idling is more accurate means it's now around 700 rpm. Nothing feel so special.

My distributor is not looking like oem? As when you remove distributor cap there should be another cover to reach ignition coil.

[Hassan1991]

yes it looks missing. but it doesn't effect the performance.

Ignition timing already seems advanced by a great amount, look inside the red circled section below

Using super glue like "elfee" on a rubber O-ring is a bad idea, you should have guided the mechanic to use RTV silicon instead.

He didn't fiddled with it. It is like this for a long time. Can it be that the correct timing is at that location because of some other thing is offset?

Today I again tried the obd2 scanner and it didn't work. Tried pin15 also. But still it didn't work.

If the connections are right and correct protocol is selected from the app then it means your obd device doesn't support K-Line communication protocol.
I told you earlier, these cheap ELM 327 clone chip based scanners don't support all the listed protocols.

Moreover, It will never work with pin 15 as this pin is meant for L-Line communication protocol.
