With that little of info.... An engine needs spark, fuel, compression, and air to start... so check to see what one you are not getting and come tell us what u dont have. Victor

i have spark, fuel, air no blown fuses,, perfect grounds , cranks and cranks really strong but no start

Whats the background on the car? Did it just start doing this? Has it been sitting? How about ur compression? Did you check that?

forget the background of the car, this isn't a interrogation. i'm guessing it's your main relay. can you hear the fuel pump prime? it's the humming noise from the back seat right before your start the car.

Yes the motor was running great about 3 weeks ago everything was fine but i needed a new clutch so i decided to take out the motor out of my 1993 civic si hatch which it was in for about 3 months now and put a flywheel and new clutch on. I also painted the engine bay flat black. anyways i put it all back together and everything seems perfect until a turn the key to start and al it does is crank crank crank and wants to turn over so bad and wont. I tried push startin it and still didnt come all the way to life? im just stuck and pissed ive done this stuff for a few years and i dono why it wont go brand new battery plugs wires notin blown ? thanks for the ideas any more ? wen it comes down to it i know its rite there and i just dont see y it wont work. The motor is an obd1 ls motor from a 94 integra

THE BULL

yes i know wat it is and it does that everytime no problem

You are right this is not an interrogation! But hearing what was said def opens ideas... BULL if I bothered you to the point that u cant sleep at night I am sorry. I was just tryin to find ideas for you and get some info before you get harrassed (flamed) for not searchin or giving pieces of information.

have bolted the ground wires to the fuel injectors? they usually bolt on the thermo housing.

what about all the wiring harness, are they connected? retrace your steps, there is something your're over looking.

i understand not a prob just sux i dont get it and it makes no sense you know its the wierdest thing everything perfect u got to start your car and it just cranks and cranks well if you thing of anything let me know im gona test my starter tomro maybe thats the problem cause even if the starter is bad it kan still crank and crank rite

THE BULL

yes that is all goood as well and it is grounded and the wires all look to b great shape

chek plug wires, distributor, and plugs again if your sure its getting fuel than it has to be something electrical. starty with the easiest and move on to the more complicated. is it stock or have you recently modified it besides the clutch

THE BULL

stock ls well i appreciate everyones ideas im gonna chek it all again tomoro and il post something up again hopefully ill be laughing 4 something stupid

Untamed_Hatred

be sure it is timed properly too

THE BULL

i put the number one at tdc then put the dizzy in and aimed the rotor at numb one is that correct

Untamed_Hatred

im pretty sure it goes about 15 degrees past top dead center, but could be wrong may want to verifiy with manual
