So I've searched all over and can't seem to find the exact same situation as mine so here it goes
my cel is on lookin for iat sensor. The ecu is stock. And tHe engine is from a 91 sir. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to buy a iat sensor from. 2000 civic or for the specific motor. Since the motor is obd1 and the ecu is obd2 I was sure if the plugs would fit. I would also have to drill a hole in my intake pipe to pu the sensor in. When I went to advance auto for the 2000 civic si they didn't have iat sensors they had air charge temperature sensor. Is this the same thing? If anyone knows what I need to do please help! If the plugs are the same awesome but I haven't bought the parts yet because I'm not sure if they will fit. Thankyou

also I'm not sure where the plug is for the iat sensor. Is it by the distributer or on the complete other side. Pictures would be amazing!

Okay since no one could answer it I have the solution. Jdm engines have a different plug than the usdm engines. I had to splice in a plu from another civic so it would fit in right to my car. Then drilled a hole and put it in the intake pipe. Hope this helps someone else
