I took a 97 civic dx 1.6 engine and put it in my 97 lx 5 speed, the dx has no plug for the evap can, and i was geting a check engine light for the evap,, SO i cut the plug off my old engine and put it back on my evap can, This is a 2 wire plug, red/yel and blk/yel the red/yellow i ran back to PCS on the PCM plug, the Blk/yel i ran to a junction connector that was all black/yellow wires in it, But im still geting the same check engine light for this evap sensor, I cant use the other evap can there is no plug on it My PCM will keep looking for one, and i cant use the other PCM its for a auto tran,

a civic not Tacoma. as posted.
see end for engines ????

surge 101 (running gasoline?)
it caused by 2 things. (and lots of reasons)
1: engine running lean. all engines lean surge. fix that first.
hint use a scan tool see live data........?????
2: ISC system is faulting, the idle speed controller can fail for #1
