i got a 93 delsol wit a 98 civic lx d16 motor wit the 93 d15 intake manifold on it to make the wiring harness work. new dist. an it wont start? ran good an hard for 3 days wit no prob. why wont it start?

 

does it turn over?

 

Are there any more symptoms?

Lights come on when you turn the key or open the door? This may sound silly, but check the battery terminal too, my buddy ran his car really hard for a while, and the terminal had somehow wiggled itself loose.

 

what computer do you have in it?
is the 98 still obd1?

Battery contact
Distributor crapped out

Could be a number of things, try checking those first.

 

aight well thx for all your inputs but none of those were even close, the car would turn over an all the lights worked first, if none of those did work then yes obviously it would be a bad connection someweres. but like i said i replaced the dist. an it would still turn over an it had spark but it jus wouldnt start up. then when it would start up when i had the timing 180 degrees off it would idle extremly shitty, so when i found that out i knew exactly what was wrong, timing belt jumped a tooth, located tdc an set the belt up an turned her over an she started right up, all i did was replace the timing belt obviously an a new belt tensioner. thx for your inputs though
