need help
 

hi i have a 96 accord that the motor is bad im not sure if its is a lx or dx but i know its a non vtec but besides that i was wondering if a 94 motor would fit in my 96 and i have all the set up for the obd2 for the 96

yes but you will need to move some stuff from the old motor to the new one like Dist and that may be it.

Either way they are the same motor

ok thanks didnt think if it would fit

what do u think i would have to move around

I think just the dist like I said before.

Everything else should be the same.

ok for get the 94 i went to go look at it and it was a mess so what about a 98 will it work

no the 98 is a different motor, it will not work.

Hi New Member..

Please post in the correct forums when asking general questions..
Welcome to the forums.. :)

but will it fit if i have all the parts and harness or not a good idea

I already said it will not work.

it will not work

It does not work

it is not the right motor

You cannot use a 98

However if you think you can just make sure you get the full harness, ECU, steering column, and factory key with chip in it.

Have fun installing a 98 steering column in your 5th gen Honda. If you do not use the steering column then the motor will not start as the ECU has an imobilizer in it. If you look around you will not find any 6th gen motors in 5th gen cars cause it is just too much work.

You need a 94-97 motor

You may be able to use a 90-93 but you will have to swap over a lot of stuff from your old motor to the new one.
