I have a em1 a upper radiator hose blew I replaced and tried to start and wouldn't start? I towed home and swapped a jdm gsr sense I thought the motor was F***** and same thing. I thought the dizzy was bad so I cut and spliced the plug from my obd2 to the obd1 dizzy and it turned on it ran, I cut off and tried to start again nothing no spark. I checked the ecu main relay injectors gets power everything I checked has power and ground but nothing? Been stuck for about a month can't figure it out. Please help I've looked at forums for weeks can't figure it out. All my fuses are good idk what else to do.

..

Do you own a test light or power probe, they are pretty helpful..

yes i just looked up how to test the dizzy Part 7 -Honda Igniter, Ignition Coil Test (1.5L, 1.6L, 2.2L, 2.3L) (http://easyautodiagnostics.com/honda_dist_ignition/honda_ignition_systems_7.php)
doing this asap! i have a multimeter to test for continuity also. i mean im pretty good with mechanics (not as good as i think sense im stuck lol) but
maybe im just over looking something or testing something wrong?

Right.. It's pretty simple!! There is a fuse under dash, but check dizzy for power, coil for power, normally those can show good, but if TDC sensor bad the coil will not fire.. SO, use test light to see if coil fires!!
