Re: 1993 Civic EX 1.6L VTEC No Start No Spark

Hi Ron, I disconnected fuel rail with the injectors. The injectors were a bit loose almost ready to fall out of fuel rail. It is hard to see them pulse fuel because as soon as key is put to ON(II)...

Re: 1993 Civic EX 1.6L VTEC No Start No Spark

I'm not sure if the fuel injectors are pulsing. I have been under the hood quite a bit and can't really hear them while cranking the engine. But don't know if that is because the engine noise drowns...

Re: 1993 Civic EX 1.6L VTEC No Start No Spark

Re: 1993 Civic EX 1.6L VTEC No Start No Spark

ok, I'm really stumped here. This car was running fine until storage 4 years ago. Now it just doesn't get any spark. I've confirmed the main relay, distributor and ECU are all good with another Civic...

Re: 1993 Civic EX 1.6L VTEC No Start No Spark

Thanks for the help Ron.

The distributor rotor turns when engine is cranking so I don't think the timing belt is broken/stripped.

I disconnected ECU and am taking voltage measurements at the...

Re: 1993 Civic EX 1.6L VTEC No Start No Spark

Also the red/green wire at ECU PIN A21 Connector does not show any voltage when key in ON(II). This is the wire that runs from the ECU to the ICM and is yellow/green where it attaches to ICM.

Is...

Re: 1993 Civic EX 1.6L VTEC No Start No Spark

Don't think it is the distributor as I've put two separate new aftermarkets in and same problem.

I just tested the pin on the ignition control module from the ECU with key in ON(II) position and...

Re: 1993 Civic EX 1.6L VTEC No Start No Spark

Thanks for the replies. I have realized that in the ON(II) position while fuel pump primes, I'm getting over 11 volts at the yellow/green fuel pump connector wire when grounded. However at the start...

Re: 1993 Civic EX 1.6L VTEC No Start No Spark

I figured the main relay was good because I'm getting power to fuel pump when key turned to ON(II). The fuel pump primes for two seconds then goes off. How can I test it to verify that it is 100%...

Re: 93 Civic EX 1.6L in Storage 4 Years Now Fuel Pump not Priming

I have tested the coil and it is within specs as well as the old coil from old distributor and it was fine too. I don't really know how to test icm but it is brand new distributor so I'm assuming it...

Re: 93 Civic EX 1.6L in Storage 4 Years Now Fuel Pump not Priming

Well I'd like to presume that the icm is good now that I bought a brand new one. That testing seems a bit ambiguous in that I don't seem to understand what to ground to, etc. Is there a test for the...
