h22 not starting?
 
I had a set of fuel injectors die on me, so I used 2 different sets of dsm 450's with the resistor box correctly wired up. I'm getting spark, I pulled the wires and put plugs in it and turned it over and they were arcing. I'm getting fuel, when I pulled the plugs they were wet. I also check the three grounds on the motor and trans. The only possible thing I could think of is that my resistor box has died? I got it to turn over once and only once, and it sounded like it was on 2 cylinders. I check and rechecked the firing order. I'm running a jdm h22 with skunk2 pro 1 cams I/H/E with dsm 450's with a phearable.net chip, which is set up for the dsm's. What else could be preventing it from starting?

There's also no check engine lights.

i have a 94 lude with a h22a1 swap and mine had a simular problem. ended up being 1 of 3 modules inside the distributor. i took the module out of an accord distributor and its run perfect ever since.

The Icm, located inside the dist? My understanding I can unbolt them and swap them out.

how are your plugs firing if you don't have fire from the distributor?

What's the plugs wet from? Oil or Fuel?

I'm getting fire from the distributor, if the coil or icm goes out will that cause a weak spark?
