Also check your exhaust manifold for cracks and leaks. On my 1996 Civic LX (D16Y7 – Non-VTEC) the original factory manifold and cat were one unit and were known to crack at the tubes. Replaced it with an aftermarket 2 piece and haven’t had a problem since. Check the O2 wiring harnesses for wear or burnt insulation. Also check the O2 harness connectors for proper connectivity and replace the die-electric lube in the connectors. The harness on the post-cat O2 sensor is more exposed to heat and water that can cause a bad connection.
Hope that helps

[quote=EricTheCarGuy]So just to recap. The problem is now fixed because you replaced the ECU and have now installed a new program? To my knowledge Honda ECU’s are not programable so do you have an aftermarket unit installed? I’m a little confused sorry.[/quote]
He was referring to his/her diagnostics software (ScanXL) not the Honda ECU.

I also use http://www.mcmaster.com for all sorts of look ups. I believe The Bolt Depot has printable screw and bolt identification charts.
