Couple quick questions about an h22

[nine_deuce]

First off... the car my h22 came out of had an automatic transmission. On the block it has an oil cooler, 1 of the 2 nipples on this are broke. My question is: do I need that oil cooler since my car has a manual trans.

Second... will the hard water line from an f series motor work on the h? it's the pipe that goes under the intake manifold.

And lastly... I need to know the signifigance of the fuel pressure regulator solenoid. Someone said I don't need it, is this true? if I don't need it, what do I do with the vacuum line and electrical plug?

Thanks in advance.

I'm getting close to having the things I need to get this done... just a few last questions... hopefully

Anyone?

You know more than me JR... Im useless...

[nine_deuce]

Wow. Is there anyone that can help me? I need to figure this stuff out, soon

[eazyduzit509]

With all the swaps out there, no one can help this guy??? He's really close to getting his swap done but he needs a few facts and pointers before he drops it in.

the oil cooLer on the back of ur motor doesnt mean it was automatice. 3 of my 5 speed motors have1 h23 h22 and f22a6 its 4 extra cooling ithink u could just block off the nipples or get a new hard pipe

[secondaryed]

h22 pipe is much biger

nah you dont NEED the cooler but to get rid of it, youll need to bypass it with a piece of hose that fits... it might be easier to just swap a new cooler in its place with one from any random F22/H22 that came with one. thats your choice.

water pipe is specific to H22. you can not switch these.

and the FPR solenoid gets pitched, the FPR should have a vac line right from its nipple to the intake manifold, nothing in between.

First off... the car my h22 came out of had an automatic transmission. On the block it has an oil cooler, 1 of the 2 nipples on this are broke. My question is: do I need that oil cooler since my car has a manual trans.

No. It does aid in cooling your oil, but it's not a necessity.

Second... will the hard water line from an f series motor work on the h? it's the pipe that goes under the intake manifold.

No. The water pump housings are at different angles where the pipe comes in, therefore the pipes are bent differently.

And lastly... I need to know the signifigance of the fuel pressure regulator solenoid. Someone said I don't need it, is this true? if I don't need it, what do I do with the vacuum line and electrical plug?

Sorry not familiar with it.... fuel pressure regulator is the only one I'm aware of and you need that for sure.

In that pic, if you look, it's the black thing that's angled towards the throttle body. There is a nipple on it that goes to a diaphragm. And if you look on the opposite side of it, toward the intake runners, there is an electrical plug that hooks to it. If its not needed, then, that's 1 less thing I have to worry about.

I appreciate your help. I'm getting super close to getting all the stuff needed to make this happen, and I'm so excited. I haven't driven my car in almost a month due to a failing head gasket. And I don't want to put any more money into the f22 since I have an h22 waiting to take its place

not to sure but the sohc vtec motor has one of those i did a sohc vtec head swap once and didnt use the siliniod work fine without but not sure if the h22 diffrent you know

[nine_deuce]

Ok, another quick question. When I do away with the fpr solenoid, where does the hose that goes from that to the diaphragm plug into?

[nine_deuce]

Anyone?

[GhostAccord]

It should go directly to the intake manifold plenum. If there are no open vacuum nipples you can use a vacuum hose "T" to splice into an existing vacuum line.

That thing you have circled...throw it away. You don't need it. Just be sure to plug up the vacuum source the hose was hooked up to.
