If the four-wheel steering (4WS) control unit senses a failure in the system, the control unit switches to a fail-safe mode. In this mode, the control unit stores a trouble code or codes and illuminates the 4WS indicator light to inform the driver that a problem exists in the system. When this mode is entered, the 4WS control unit shuts off voltage to the rear steering unit and the rear wheels remain in the straight-ahead position.
This is a complicated engine swap requiring modifications to the chassis. If you have never performed an engine swap before, Hasport recommends that you have this swap performed by a competent shop. These instructions pertain ONLY to the ENGINE MOUNTING of a K-Series motor into Honda Accord 1994 – 1997 chassis. There are still many other parts that will be needed for proper operation. These parts are under development by Hasport and other companies.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp. This indicator comes on for a few seconds when you turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position. If it comes on at any other time, it indicates one of the engine’s emissions control systems may have a problem. For complete information, refer to the Civic Sedan owner’s manual.

The Surbo gives more energy, enabling quick acceleration towards the more economical higher gears in a shorter time. If driving on highways, the vehicle easily exceeds speed limits due to the higher torque, so there will be more rolling and thus exceptional fuel engine savings. In the city, there is the same extra rolling momentum due to quicker acceleration, but much of that can be lost to braking. Thus, fuel savings can range from minimum zero (during hard sprinting in the city) to over twenty percent on the highway. Most customers report an overall improvement of 10% in economy. The following cars have been made more frugal with Surbo, control too. Running without cruise control, the highway consumption was 14-15 km/litre, but when the cruise control was turned on, Azman could feel the accelerator being automatically depressed further from his foot, and the extra pedal travel brought the highway consumption back to the original 12-13 km/litre. This shows that with a Surbo, the driver will press less on the accelerator and this will contribute to a more relaxing drive, and of course more economy.
Fuel system components include a fuel tank located in the trunk, an integrated fuel pressure regulator, an in-tank fuel shutoff valve, high pressure fuel lines, electronically controlled multipoint fuel injectors, and other equipment. Fuel system components in the Civic CNG comply with NFPA-52 standards.
Your vehicle is equipped with genuine Honda component parts that have been designed and approved for use in a compressed natural gas vehicle. Never modify or replace any original components or parts with those specified for a gasoline- powered vehicle. Improper parts or components can damage your vehicle’s fuel system and affect your vehicle’s safety and performance.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp This indicator comes on for a few seconds when you turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position. If it comes on at any other time, it indicates one of the engine’s emissions control systems may have a problem. For complete information, refer to the Civic Sedan owner’s manual. This indicator will also come on if there is a problem in the fuel system. If this happens, have the vehicle checked by an authorized Honda Civic GX dealer as soon as possible. Drive moderately until the dealer has inspected the problem. Avoid full-throttle acceleration and driving at high speed.
Your Civic GX is designed to operate on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG). The natural gas you use to refuel must meet NFPA-52 and SAE J1616
standards for fuel composition and quality. If you use a fuel that does not meet these standards, you may feel a decrease in engine power and your vehicle’s emissions controls may be damaged.
