Boosted Civic not starting I NEED HELP!!!
Whats going on eveyone ive talked to many ppl, done many things and nothing has helped. Heres my problem. I have an Ls/Vtec Turbo with an AEM EMS. I got the car tuned on 93 made 225 at 6lbs. Since the tune, my car has been having problems starting it would crank more than normal then fire up. Once fired up the car ran and drove great. A week later I would sit there and crank, crank, crank for a good 45 seconds and then it would turn over. As of last week 2/26/06 the car hasnt started and I cant get it to start. I repaced the Distrabuator, Cap, Rotor and got a new starter. The starter is spinning strong but Im not getting any spark. Does any one know what else I can check, i checked wiring, fuses etc. Is there any chance that the problem is my distrabuator even tho its new? And did the tune screw my ignition up. i have a stock ignition since I only havve 225 whp.....ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!!!!!!

you need 3 things to make it run... ignition, compression, and fuel
start weeding them out one by one

So how do you know you have ZERO compression? did you do a compression check?
