Sounds like a ground issue..I dont know about 92+ cars..But on my crx if you take off the ground from the vtec harness on the thermostat housing it wont start,,Wont even crank at all.. Make sure its grounded good..

Knock has nothing to do with it...

A). you knocked the starter solenoid wire off
B). No power to starter
C). Ground issue
