its a 91 crx, with a b16a. when the car got to me, it had jumped timing on the intake cam by about 90 degrees, and the distributor was bad.
so, i replaced the distributor, and relined all the timing marks,
it ran for a minute or two, then i shut it off, and it wouldnt start. so, after cranking the motor for a long time, just to see if it would eventually crank, we pulled the plugs, and gas started coming out, and some came out of the throttle body too. all in all about a gallon or more came out... so, with a noid light i checked the injector connections, and had even pulse, the light didnt stay on, so id imagine its not an electrical problem. also, it has a holley regulator, and aem rail. so, i replaced the injectors, and regulator, since the adjustment was broken. now, the car still wont start.
ive sprayed starting fluid in the throttle body, and it still wont crank.
the only things i can think, are the plugs are pretty fouled, but ive never seen plugs so bad they wont spark. i have spark in all for cylinders, and when spraying the fluid, even the motor wasnt getting fuel, it still should crank right?

any suggestions? any possibility of bent valves? and would the motor still crank if this was the case?

thanks for any help!

it seem like you got a clogg fuel pump..

 

Compression check.

 

im pretty sure it still has decent compression, but ill check it monday. along with new plugs.
man, i wish my shop was open so i could work on it more today. this is stressing me out real bad.

 

oh, and i dont think its the fuel pump. its more than likely a problem with spark. if it was the fuel pump it would have started with the starter fluid.

 

are you sure you found TDC on a compression stroke or a decompression stroke? this is a common problem when re setting timing. i would pull of the belt and do it again, turning the crank over to make sure you have a compresion stroke. once the belt is back on spin it over with a ratchet 360 degrees and make sure your witness marks line up again.

 

how do you tell which stroke it is? i couldnt find the timing marks, so i used an extension in the hole on cyl 1. and set it at the top. so thats tdc on compression, correct?

 

What distributor did you replace it with? Where did you get it?

 

te same kind, i got a used obd0 from jon at lht. matching numbers and all.
