I was wondering....
I recently came into a 86 CRX SI(FI) and a 85 Civic(carb)
Crx has engine and bad body....
Civic has body but blown engine...
I don't know what the engine # is...I just want to know if I could get help on finding out what wiring needs to be moved cause of the CRX's ECU...
I am thankful for any help...

Ok...why the lines tank and pump...
I was gonna hot wire a inline pump onto the Civic...
But the tank is not the same shape...it won't bolt on...
and the lines...from the looks of it they are the same lines....
Thanks for the help so far...

Thenyou could put an inline pump,it's just that sometimes the rubber hose may not like the increas in pressure:) That's all,the metal ones shouldn't be a problem

They both have Metal Lines....
hmm...another question....the CRX should have 3 "20" fuses snapped on the side of the cabs fuse box...it doesn't have them...
the civic has 2 20's snapped on the side....but it is missing the one for the ECU.....according the to chilton it should anyway....
i guess i can just wire that in somehow right? or should i get that snap on piece from honda???
