My friend gave me his integra and for some reason it doesn't turn over. The car cranks and everything but i'm not getting spark from the spark plug wires. I tried changing the whole distributor out, checked all fuses under the dash and in the engine bay, checked the ground wires on the engine, changed the ecu. I'm getting power on the black/yellow wire at the distributor. What could be the problem? I'm also getting fuel too. The car cranks but it just won't turn over.

 

Did you also check the ignitor coil( I think). Do you have a helms manual? That might help?

 

yes i have a helms manual. i've replaced the whole distributor so its not the coil because the coil is inside the distributor. I've added more gas to make sure it wasn't out of gas and everything that i could think of. i tried searching to make sure its not something i overlooked. the car hasn't been running for a few months also. There is clifford alarm on the car but i don't think that is the problem. The lights on the dash does turn on and i'm not getting any CEL, i checked the alarm to see if theres any loose/disconnected wires and theres none that i can see.

check youre timing i had the same problem when i replced my distributor after somone jackt it

 

check your timing belt, my teg did a similar thing when i snaped my timing belt, cranked but didn't crank over, sprayed starting fluid still didn't start, so i eliminated fule problem. Just a thought.

 

i checked the timing belt already. i put it on tdc and the marks on the cam gears matched up. i also did a compression test and leakdown test. The 2nd cylinder is a bit low but that shouldn't be the problem.
