planing on doing that tomorrow thought it was strange but makes sense reads to hot and adjusts timing and fuel to suit and adjust to much and not running we did notice when codes where cleared and we tried to re start it was backfiring

so is this the one in the block at the front behind the starter

Hi all i managed to get a code reader from one of our mechanics and he cleared all codes for me and then rescaned
codes that came up was po118 wont clear  and   ect sencor1 high  so where do i go from here


cheers all your help has been great

https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/p0118-obd-ii-trouble-code-engine-coolant-temperature-ect-sensor-circuit-high-open-problem-by-jay-safford

open circuit could be a broken wire or connection,  or maybe something not plugged in when engine was swapped - best to eyeball the sensor and plugs first to see if anything obvious as it may not be the sensor that is faulty.

article says po118 will cause engine to go into rich fuel mode and maybe run rough, so it should start and run at coldest temperatures but will be getting too much fuel - so the opposite of fuel starvation

Sounds like the cootant temp. sender is disconnected or faulty.

The backfiring could be due to excess fuel, the engine may be flooded. Some ECUs discontinue ignition to save the engine under certain fault conditions, which would flood the engine.

The coolant sensor is at the transmission end of engine at the back of block - warning in haynes manual not to confuse it with camshaft position sensor just below it - need to take off airbox.

The op's car has the 1.5 VTEC engine, I'm not sure how similar it is to the i-DSI engine?

Honda also produced a 1.5 litre I-Dsi 8 valve twin spark which I would suppose was a bored out 1.3.

Not 100% on this, but I think all of the early Jazz/Fit 1.5 built for the Aus market were VTEC.

I believe that was only available in cars for the Japanese market. It was a longer stroke version of the i-DSi engines available here.

Sensor for the 1.5 engine appears to be fitted to the water pump mounting, the same as on the other L series engines.

Me too, Wayne. At 70 years old all this electronics just spoils working on cars for me. I like to be able to look at a thing and tell if it is broke or not!
So well done, and don't go leaving us now your car is going. We welcome the perspective from "down under".
