1992 Honda Accord no spark need help please
my 1992 Honda accord was driving and the engine just died. it wouldn't restart just turned over. I took the fuel line off the fuel rail and pulled the injectors and replaced them. I then replaced the fuel pump because I did not have good pressure. still didn't start. I replaced the main relay. still didn't start. I replaced the distributor cap and rotor. still didn't start. I replaced the ignition control module and still didn't start. there is currently no spark. i don't want to just keep guessing whats wrong. where do I go from here because other peoples similar problem point to lots of directions and I don't want to guess. any help would be appreciated.

Wrong sub-forum but... whatever... same basic stuff
Start at one end of the problem and work towards the other. In every item listed above, you're jumping into the middle of a system and hoping that fixes your problem.
For the ignition system, start at the Spark Plugs and work towards to the distributor.
If it's not starting at all, it might be your ICM. Or, you could have bad plugs or bad wires. We don't know because you jumped into the middle of the system by starting with the distributor cap.
For the Fuel system... test the rest of the ignition system first and get back to us. Let's not worry about it right now. You say you don't have good fuel pressure but I suspect that you don't actually know so it may not be a problem.

Im just asking because i don't know and im used to the d15 and d16. but if the timing blew wouldnt that kill spark as well?

The engines aren't much different. There's nothing in the first post that would suggestion a timing belt failure but there's a chance that's the problem. If timings far off I suppose the spark could blow out before igniting.

You need to check the timing belt. If you broke a timing belt, you wouldn't have spark because there is no movement in the distributor.

After checking the timing belt, check for power at the yellow-black wire at the distributor with the ignition on. If none, check all the fuses.
