no but static electricity can ruin a ecu or ecm by just tuching it. you should wear gloves or a metal bracelet that is grounded to the vehicle to prevent damage. They are extremely sensitive.
Another word for prelude would be an overture or opening of an opera.
they would fit but your car would run rich because the 90 prelude is a 2.0 the other one is a 2.2 or a 2.3
It would be best to have it reinstalled by a professional.
You would not be able to run any Java programs until you reinstalled it.
1993 The H22 debuted in the U.S. in 1993 as the H22A1 for use in the Honda Prelude VTEC.
The opposite of a postlude (recessional) would be a prelude.
I just went through that exact problem with my 88 prelude, it was the ignition cylinder.
Provided the '97 Prelude is a base model, then yes it is possible to swap in an H22a variant. The Prelude Type SH motor is different as the ATTS unit is connected to the motor. So, the only compatible H22a motors would be one from another Type SH, or the JDM Honda Prelude Type S motor.
If you are looking at the fastest production versions of either car (ex: RSX Type S vs. Prelude VTEC), then the RSX would about match with the Prelude 0-60, but be a little faster in the quarter mile.
the best swap would be a JDM vtec 2.2 liter. you can get a 2.2 liter vtec out of something like a 2001 Honda prelude but you would have to do the wiring harness
The 1994 Honda Prelude is best run with 91 octane fuel or higher. The vehicle is designed for use with high octane fuel.
A 1994 Honda Prelude S would not have a VTEC engine in it (assuming it has the original engine in it). It should have the F22A1 in it which is SOHC and Non-VTEC.
