Ok i just did my first motor swap(1st gen ZC into a 91 honda Civic Si). I went to start the car the other day and...it didn't start. I'm getting fuel but no spark. I put brand new plugs, brand new wires, brand new coil, brand new cap and a brand new rotor and distributor. I am still not getting spark, what else could it possibly be? Any help as soon as possible would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

what have you done to check if you are getting spark?

InfernoSoul

I just did the basic - pull a wire and a plug and cranked the motor over at different points on the body and no spark.

try the ignitor, thats what it was in my car...

so you got some1 to crank the motor while you held the plug and checked for spark?

make sure you did the wiring right. maybe the coil isnt getting juice. also make sure u did all the grounds on the engine itself.

InfernoSoul

What if the coil isn't getting juice... What do i need to check or do to make sure its hooked up to get juice? Turbo i got a whole new distributor so the ignitor is new.

check your grounds. and wiggle the plugs.

InfernoSoul

Which grounds are you refering to? Grounds like off the vavle cover, trany, head, intake manifold and block? or Grounds to do with the ignition?

or the ignitor.............

Brand new ignitor and it is grounded....no spark.
