this is just about a live chat, haha.
I'l pull it out and see what's up, car quest is one street over and I'm there all the damn time so they know I'm dumb and they'll help me. How much do they cost?

Main relay is really expensive new and will need to be purchased through honda directly. Now onto if it is the main relay is your fuel pump turning on? Also have you tried just push starting the car?

I don't think the clicking could be from the dizzy wires since those are on the right side of the car and the clicking comes from the left, right where the main relay is at. One of the distributor connector (the one going to b10) was disconnected and I hooked it back up, could that have burned anything out?

I plugged those in before I started this thread, I just never bothered to mention it. it never sparked even after I did that
I'm going to replace the coil with one from a spare distributor I have. I would have done that yesterday but the screws on my brand new obd0 b16 distributor are on there really tight and I'm going to a shop that has special equipment for taking them off.

I pulled the cap off and pulled the dizzy off the engine and I didn't see any water or anything in there. do you think the alternator could be causing some problems? in the thread "electrical bullshit" somebody said that when the alt goes out it makes the car go *****?

Re:B16 swap in, and it ran (past tense)
yah I said that.. when and alt starts to die it makes weird ---- happen in the electrical system, lights on the gauge blink and flash. the alt is really close to the coolant pipe on the back of the block to isn't it..
