Icon6 h22a1 swapped civic help

Hi im looking for advice on a problem I am having with my 99 civic dx with a H22 obd1 swap. I just got done doing a head swap on my h22. While doing the head swap I put arp head studs, gates timing belt kit, all New gaskets and fluids. Had the car back for about 2-3 weeks and its way running very good besides a idle issue. When I have my motor at normal running temp it usually idles at about 900rpms. For some reason after the swap my warm idle at a complete stop was 600rpm. I was told to clean my iacv with carb cleaner to fix that. Thats all I did to it, I didn't touch anything else and for some reason it had a low idle of about 200rpm. Then would eventually stall out. Messed with it for a min anf couldn't figure it out. Put it back in the garage for the night and now it wont start at all. All dash lights turn on like normal, tries to start but wont turn over. No spark and I can no longer hear my fuel pump turn on. Tried recleaning the iacv but still nothing. No engine light codes being thrown. If any on has advice for me that would be great because I am puzzled. Thanks in advance, corey

If you can provide us with some information would be great. Ex: what ecu are you using? what engine harness are you using? the more information, the better someone can help you. I be nice and say "check your timing!" DOuble check your timing, triple check your timing.

Have you checked your spark plugs? Wires? Dizzy? Start there and report back

iacv causes annoying idle problems but not stalling. As the previous poster said start by checking out the ignition system.
