What you propose will not work with your pcm. If you have 2 wires to the knock sensor, one is probably a reference wire and the other a signal. The computer will throw a code and will not understand the return signal.
The Quad 4 does not have plug wires. The engine cover plate has 4 bolts. remove them and lift straight up on the cover. the sparkplug boots will come up with the cover plate. They are protruding strait down from the coils(4) and the plugs are down in the valley between the cam towers if you have the DOHC or behind the cam tower if you have the SOHC.
disconnect battery,,jack up the car,,support car before u craw under it,,take off wire cover on starter wire,some times it their or not,,take battery wire of & smaller wire off,take the starter bolts out,,take starter out,,reverse when installing new starter
I WOULD SAY GET A REPAIR MANUAL TO LOOK AT THE STARTER WIRING DIAGRAM TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE TWO RED WIRES BATTERY POSITIVE CABLE + FUSE LINK WIRE GOES TO SOLENOID POSITIVE BATTERY TERMINAL POST .THAT THE LARGE STUD WITH A BOLT.THE SMALL PURPLE WIRE GOES TO S OR SWITCH TERMINAL ON THE STARTER SOLENOID.
Changing from a 1992 to a 1997 < WILL NOT Be EASY , As you must HAVE the ENTIRE ENGINE WIRING HARNESS , And ALSO the ECM for the older Set up. In the "5" YEARS there Were MANY CHANGES to the ENGINE Components= SENSORS and ACTUATERS .
its just a BETTER IDEA to Stay Whitin a year or 2 when Swaping ENGINES. SIZE OF SENSORS ETC. MAKES IT DIFICULT
