The CKF is only a crank fluctuation sensor.

There is no way to bypass the Crank sensor. if you want your car to start.

Mine is bypassed in my Integra and it starts just fine. But this is B series and I did the mod in the link

This may be a dumb question. Why would you want to bypass the ckp sensor? What are the pros of having this done on any engine?

OK , i will repeat exacly what i said above...

CKF is a Crank FLUCTUATION sensor... THIS IS NOT A CRANK SENSOR.

if you dont plug the CRANK Sensor on your ''J'' IT WILL NOT START.

I'm sure you are right. The B series can use the distributor so Im sure thats why you can jump them on the b series.

well the benifit of me doing this is so the car WILL start, j35 block, j32 heads,sensors, intake and so on... sad part. no oil dip pstick. but! i have no cel codes, i have the j32 crank sensor mounted on the j35 block but it wont work the way it is. and i couldnt figure out a way to wire the j35 crank sensor to the j32 harness as it is 6 wire where the 3.2 is 3 wire... i know its possible! iv seen it on a chevorlet. they had a box that emitted the signal like the crank would. it ran off of the tach signal (so i was told) i know it was bypassed but as to how it was actually done idk.

ok , Your J32a2 crank sensor should be in your transmission case , and read the flywheel triger. that is if you have a j32a2 PCM , and on a J series , i will tell it for a third time , You CANNNOT bypass the crank sensor , you CANNOT bypass the crank sensor...

Your Tach signal IS FROM the crank sensor... not the oposite , maybe it was done a a GMC , i dont care , what i tell you is , YOU CANNOT bypass your crank sensor on that HONDA J32A2 ,


The J32a2 PCM need the crank sensor on the trans case , and other J PCM need the crank sensor on the oil pump at the crank pouley.
