Thanks.
The timing seems to be screwed up on it, we have the distributor fully advanced and it still doesn't seem like it is running right. The nice thing is the car has been swapped to multi port, bad thing is since I didn't do the work we aren't sure on the quality of the swap. We tried to jump the connector to set the timing but it didn't seem to do anything. Next we need to figure out what is going on with the heater, it blows luke warm, think it's clogged.

I should also add this is my first Honda, have built just about every other make out there. Planning on doing a stock mod style restore on it. Trying to figure out how to post pictures on my phone.

Welcome! Looking forward to the pics and progress.

Troubleshooting someone elses swap job can be quite an undertaking!

When you said you jumped the service port, are you doing that with the key off? If you do it with the key on or the car running it won't work... Or your issue isn't in the dizzy at all.
