have just changed the motor in a 1990 integra with fuel injection to a 1.5 sohc non vtec have not been able to get it to start. i think it has something to do with the distributor, any ideas?

You changed a DOHC B-series for a SOHC D-series? Why?

Re: spark plug not igniting help
which pcm?
i'm not 100% on this, but i'm pretty sure, with non-obd, you can't use a dohc pr4 on a sohc pm6
if you're not getting spark, key on engine off, test for power at the blk/ylw tracer wire of the 2 pin distributor connector

Re: spark plug not igniting help
sorry i know that the coil is blown but i think there is something else wrong that caused the coil to blow
