I'm stumped!?
**1990 Acura Integra/1996 LS Obd1 Motor**
Ok i'm completely stumped on this... About two day's ago I was driving my car and just plut plut plut plut died... I thought maybe my spark plugs were bad because I was having some carbon build up, cleaned them out and put them back on and after a few cranks it started and drove home..went to start it today and nothing...just cranked cranked cranked and nothing.
So I figured well let me see if I have spark...OK I HAVE SPARK..ok well fuel next thing...fuel pump prime :checked: fuel from the fuel filter :check: fuel to the fuel rail :check: fuel to the injectors..wait heres a problem, only two were firring..
Hm? so I replaced the two with another set I had laying around the house..ok all four starting working, so I put it back on and still <FONT COLOR="red">NOTHING</FONT>! So I called a buddy who's a mech at honda and asked him. I explained the situation, he told me to check to see if my timing jumped...Well it APPEARS to be off by a tooth if that, I told him, so he said tried to see if it's flooded? ::spray starting fluid while my girl cranked it and catched but turned off::...ok THAT didnt worked (shocked? im not). So Ok let me take out the fuel rail again and see what's up with the injectors... Now the injectors are shooting AIR out of all four? Now im getting fuel/spark/fuel to rails..but injectors shooting out air? Im stumped with this one guys..any help would be great.. Dont really know that much about engine work so any idea would be great.. Thanks!
p.s my grammar sucks

i read that.
as the other guy said, are you getting injector pulse? do you have power-ground, and does the injector fire? put a big screwdriver on it and use it as a stethescope and thatll tell you the answer to that other than that, the injectors may be clogged, or your fuel filter could possibly be plugged.
(edit)
ok i just read the whole thing, are you sure the injectors are installed properly in the rail? did you make sure there are o-rings, theyre positioned correctly, and remained positioned correctly while you installed them?

Yeah i replaced all the O rings and there all position correctly when firring...I mean iuno? I never heard of just vapor shooting out of the injectors?? Could my main relay be bad? Or wouldnt that not have my fuel pump to prime?
