My car will not start...ive searched...
Fuel pump primes
Timing is set
Main relay clicks
Plugs send spark
No wires touch
Have 2 ecu's both do the same thing
No fuel into the cylenders...injectors arent pulsing i think...
HELP!!!

i would use this as my focal point... you know u have spark you know everything else is fine.. try tracing the wiring from the injectors down to the harness... Check all of the grounds.. check the distributor and make sure the spark plug wires are on the correct terminal .. the spark plugs may be firing, but if its not in the right order then you wil not get the motor to start.

The dizzy is in the correct way, never toook the rotor out...no motor swap...is the stock b18a1 in my 1991 acura integra....all wires seem fine so far...everything is grounded...is it a main relay? how would i know?!

The hole reason i had it all torn apart...is cuz the Brown santa came...
Crower 403 cams, dual springs, retainers
Head was milled .020", dipped, and glass beaded
Valves were glass beaded, and 3 angle valve job
AEM cam gears
All new gasket set (oem)
B&M adjustable FPR and guage
intake, header, free flow cat, cat back exhaust
Apexi-SAFC
2 ECU's, both stock and un-chipped, neither start the car tho...so either i have 2 bad ecu's or the ecu isnt the problem (im sure the ECU isnt the problem, i plugged it into a buddy of mines b16 crx, and it started that...
Again, im almost certain, grounds are made, and wires are good...im just not getting fuel threw the injectors...dont know if its even making it into the fuel rail? but my FP guage on my filter on the firewall, read 40psi after primed...

main relay. if you main realy is not working, fuel pump does not prime. put fuel pressure gauge in, or loosen purge on filter (careful with the eyes), turn key from off to first on, not start. you should have fuel pressure and hear pump for a couple seconds. no pressure means bad pump, pump wiring, or main relay. most likely.
I was there, i was looking at the FP Gauge for his regulator, he had pressure. Anything else!?!

Just got out of the garage its 10pm...i tried this...Flipped the distributor rotor 180 CW and then set it back to stock, then flipped it 180 CCW and still no start, so set it back to stock...
Fuel pump is priming...
Releived pressure from fuel filter, and primed again, and FPR guage shot back up
Put finger on main relay, and it clicks...
All grounds are made...That i know of, what grounds are there that would affect fuel delivery?
HELP!!!

Was reading the Helms manual...and it says this in the Fuel system chapter...
When an abnormality occurs in the ECU itself, the injectors are controlled by a back up circuit independent of the sysetm in order to permit minimal driving.
What does that mean?

it means that it should run in "limp mode", which dumps a bunch of fuel in, retards timing, and revs are limited to 3200rpm.
double check your injectors, your resistor box, and your engine harness connections.
how are you checking to see if fuel makes it into the engine?
did you double check your timing belt (you probably did, but I'm going to ask anyway)?
try turning it over with the gas pedal pegged down?

its an ground wire on the harness, the 10mm bolt that holds four grounds together, its located by the upper radiator hose on the block, tyr that let me know
