i just finished the mini me swap. so i go and try to start it and it turns over like it normally would but it won't start. i did the obd0 to obd1 conversion. i have a 90 crx si by the way. i put the obd1 distributor on with obd0 plugs. i think the problem might be with the wires. i found a lot of people who used the obd0 plugs on the obd1 distributor, but the write ups aren't right. all the wires are the same color except the obd0 end has 2 white wires. BOTH ARE EXACTLY THE SAME SIZE. i compared them ridiculously and had 3 other people give me their opinions. they are in fact the same size. so i found a forum post (can't find it now though) that someone has the pin-outs and colors and matched them up that way. i figured if someone took the time to do a pin out of both plugs and what they do, that they were right. has anyone out there messed up the 2 white wires? does this sound like that problem? oh, one of the white wires had a piece of small red electrical tape on it right where it plugs into the obd0 connector.

i made sure the timing belt timing was right too. the distributor timing might be off, but that shouldn't stop it from starting up right? and i'm almost positive that i put it back in right. anyone have any ideas? how is the timing supposed to be set for the mini me swap because i have yet to find a write up on it that actually tells you. i matched the crank pulley line where it was supposed to be for TDC and i found the manual for the 93 del sol si (the head i have) and lined the head up to where that was supposed to be and put everything back on making sure that they were still in the same spot after the belt went back on.

any opinions out there? any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
