1.8 to 2.2 swap help
well I got a 2.2 out of a legacy MT and it is a 95 aswell but i dont know what month it was made but it has another 6 prong plug that my 1.8 does not have and my mothers 2.2 legacy would not run without this pluged in
this is the plug above the the 2 big plugs next to the bell housing
on the passenger side
so my question is this
was 95 a split year between body styles and engine types?
i also got the ecu with this 2.2 engine and the plugs are different too but will the 95 1.8 ecu run the 2.2?

well if they gave me the right ecu for the engine than that might be impossible without changing entire wiring harness because the 1.8 has the 3 small plugs and the 2.2 has i guess 2 big ones with a toggle in the middle
thats if octagon gave me the right one....
but the trans is the same because it still has the clutch hanging off the flywheel so this is not a problem
