    Default Integra wont start :/

    well to sum it all off i pulled spark plug number 1 while the engine was on and it was idleing for about 5 seconds then it just died compleatly and never started agian. then i saw on cyn 4 that there was oil from a bad valve cover gasket and i replaced that. now i changed the spark plug wires, distributor, distributor rotor, and tested the ignition coil. i changed the spark plug wires about 2 weeks ago. im stumpped and its pissing me off.

    and i checked the main relay and its not that. anyone know?

    Then its def. a spark issue. Need 2 see if the rotor button is good. Some of the aftermarket rotor buttons arent designed well and the spark runs back down and grounds to the distributor.

    did you check compression...... sound to me like you may have jumped time.

    Start by checking compression

    If you need some help with it give us a call 678-363-6789 mainstreamperformance.

    Sounds like an ignition issue from the sound of it.

    More than likely you brunt out the coil

    How did you test it?

    It is very common to burn out the ignition coil by either doing a spark test or load test. When you remove the resistance of the spark plug out of the system you create a short and ohm law states that electricity is lazy it will take the shortest path so you “burn a hole in the coil” by causing this short.

    Replace the coil and if every thing else is installed correctly then it should fire up

    Even with no compassion with starter fluid if should at least pop a little when you turn it over

    hmm ignition coil, cap, rotor button, timing, might have jumped timing but taking off one spark plug wire wont make this happen though, cause i Done this procedure plenty of times and it dont cause this problem of yours. Do you have enough gas ? 8D

    CHECK:
    spark plugs wires in correct order?
