Cant Get Spark....Need Help!
Car: 90 Crx b16
Problem: Wont Start ; No Spark
Replaced Cap/Rotor
Replaced Igniter Coil
Checked Voltage at distributor plug , Getting power to dist.
Is it possible that the distributor is bad all together even though I replaced the igniter coil today?
Or Could it be the main relay preventing spark, Ive heard it thhe main relay preventing fuel pump from working.
This is a fresh swap and all ground are connected and wires/plugs/igniter/cap/rotor/engine harness are all bran new.
What are some possible things it could be?
And When I turn the key to the second click, should I hear the fuel pump engage? I can feel the main relay click once but I dont hear the pump

I had this same problem not too long ago with my gsr.it turns out the spark plugs got messed up when I tried to start it and was tapping the gas pedal.
g/l with the fix.

if ur not getting any spark it sounds like the distributor i have one out of an integra but i was told it can be used on any b series let me know if you want it cause i'm selling it way cheaper then going to advance or auto zone and buying one for 300.

If your ignitor and coil are separate, are you getting voltage
at the coil? and at the ignitor itself? Maybe a black/yellow wire?
A new part doesn't always mean nothing is out of order.-Bob

u need to figure out if ur not gettin spark or fuel....seems like u really dont know...just ur car wont start...make sure ur gettin fuel at the injector...make sure ur gettin spark at the plug...once u figure out if its not gettin spark or fuel..then u can go from there...and yes if could be the main relay...i found a site that shows how to fix them a long time ago when my car had this problem...u take it out and apart and make sure all the lines and solder are still together and not cracked etc..if they are u resolder them together ....but that wasnt my problem..mine was the coil..which u replaced along with the ignitor so u might have problems else where...but figure out exactly what ur not gettin first...and then we can help u diagnose the problem
