finished b18b swap but dies when throttle is applied
b18b 94 civic
i replaced the throttle body from a crv so i know i have a good tps and good map sensor
but my idle is about 1500, i hear a strange whistling noise, and when i give it gas, it automatically dies. its also running rich,
i used the injectors from the b18b but i had to splice them. is it possible the injector wires are backwards? can this happen
timing seems fine. i havent checked the codes yet, but i think it could be from igniter or coil?
thoughts?

yes i moved it back in forth as far as what it would allow but the dist never has been removed so i dont see how it could be off?
or could it be. i was having a hard time getting to the little pin thingie to check the codes never done it on this civic

so i go to check the codes, im getting a solid check engine light
i unplug the map sensor and it goes all over the place, so i know the map is good, strange that it affects the ecu even though its in limp mode?
also i unplug the tcs and nothing happens, still die when i give it gas
oh its running SUPER rich i got a headache from gas fumes.
any ideas??

The solid cel means you have no codes in obd1/2 that are being thrown. I'll bet you money that if you swap the tps plug and the map sensor plug it'll run just fine.

Was the car up and running before you swapped the TB? Or has it never been running before?
