I suggest you figure out what the problem is before you start running out and buying parts.

Have you tested the fuel pressure to see what it is?

What ECU are you running?
Any CEL codes?

My civic ran real rich, but I wasn't going thru spark plugs like you though. I converted my b16 over to obd1 it it solved all my problems.

Make sure you're getting spark to your spark plugs first. Than double check wiring.
