Got a few swap questions (help vxers?)

The first question is this: What should I do about the fuel line? Where it attaches to the banjo bolt, it's different. Kinda hard to see, but one side is the same and the other is more open on the one I had compared to the one that came with the engine (And came cut in half):





Also, does the US VX have a second o2 sensor? Should I just ignore this one?


Thanks for the helpzors.

Maybe one of those fuel lines is for the return?

Cut your good one in half and braze them together...

If it looks like it'll leak if you use your old one, I'd either make a visit to majestic honda or a local junkyard. I have no idea though, sorry.

Also, I thought the VX just had one (really expensive) O2 sensor. Majestic honda usually posts parts diagrams, so you could figure it out that way...

Those fuel lines are both for the incoming, we'll have to see if honda stocks the part. I might have one in my basement, too, who knows...I know I've gone through several of them...

Good idea on checking majestic, will do.

the O2 sensor in the middle of the exhaust manifold is the only one in the CX/VX

The diff is that the VX uses the 'spensive wideband one.

Yeah, I checked majestic...in japan they evidently had two o2s, which is what most cars have these days.

Good old honda, ahead of it's time and all. Just going to leave the other o2 in to block the hole.
