single overhead non-vtec zc what is the firing order to double check?
1-3-4-2
Hella stock member!
ok stumped, i have compression i have spark i have gas and fuel pressure and the timing is right so what the hell might be going on/
new plugs, wires, dizzy, rotor, cap, fuel pressure 50, timing correct and no fuses are blown anyone? anyone? why wont this run?
check all the connection at the ecu to see if they are loose, i have had problems like this before and it was one damn wire that was loose and not connected. any cel
Does it turn over at all? If not check the wires on your starter. Might be your ecu plugs like jdmalltheway said.
1-3-4-2 my bad, it does turn over very well actually it just wont catch and run.

Sounds really weird man. You have gas in your car? Lol i had it happen to me with my old hatch a few months a go. I had spark, fuel and my timing was all correct and it turned out i had no gas. Idk just a thought.
checked them out just a few minutes ago, the ecu wires that is; this is just weird everything seems to be in order but the motor just wont catch and start. ill keep digging but if anyone comes up with something let me know asap please. could someone post a picture of the distributor diagram it should be 3-4-1-2 but where is one? yes i forgot.
haha yeah man def have gas. it's weird i checked compression, fuel pressure spark everywhere from every angle, timing, injector fire. I mean the thing has new plugs wires and distributor, cap, button everything!
Is the wiring harness grounded ? If not the injectors are firing .

Well i ran out of ideas lol maybe h22jones is right about the harness. You should try that.
Out of curiosity, what were your compression readings?
I'm not very Honda literate, so bear with me.
Is this an OBD2 motor? If so do you have CEL?

been a few days but if i remember correctly... 140,150ish,180,120. not great but its not enough to keep it from running its been running no sense why it would just quit. but yes it is obd2. and yes it has a CEL light. but its not on or rather wont show that its on when not running. anyone near cartersville want to take a look at this thing?
just to add it shows 50lbs fuel pressure.
so i had a thought. lets test this theory one of the plug wires was fried and i do mean fried; the alternator was never replaced but also never gave me an issue but if that last jolt to the sytem was enough could it cause the alternator to not function well enough to cause it to not start? its a thought, seeing as everything else basically is new.
narrowed down to i think possibly main relay trouble harness looks fine, what are the chances this relay could have blown due to an ark from a plug wire?
Could be your main relay. Make sure your grounds are all right too.
here you go this is what i go buy![]()
cool thanks, guess ill check that and the main relay. damn this things on my nerves, think ill pull the alternator to just to check.
ok, well the car has decided to live still not sure what caused this mess but it works and very well so thanks for the help people.
