Bad dizzy was to blame...got new one and car runs...boo yah first engine swap is complte...
I had to swap out my d16a1 from my 89 CRX and i am swapping in a d16a6...i finally got everything together and it wont start...Checked the firing order, all lines everything; but there is one sensor from my wiring harness, it looks like a 3 wire clip that is flat that doesnt connect to anything. Also I had to change the wiring on the dizzy to account for the cylinder sensor in the before Exhaust Cam. Also I had brake cleaner sprayed into the throttle body and it still wont help...any advice/tips thanks

Fuel cant tell but Brake cleaner would substitute even to make it attempt to turn, spark yes pulled #1 cylinder and checked it...the guy who sold it to me said it was a running motor.

Always check for three things:
Spark, Fuel, and Timing.
If you're getting Spark and Fuel, then your timing is off, and they're not happening when they're supposed to.

I believe it my have something too do with your dizzy bro. If you spray carb cleaner in the TB, and a no go, there's no spark. Like Tippyman said, you need those 3, so check your timing.
You also need compression, but I highly doubt that is your issue.

Thanks for the help, Im at work right now "HT all day" but when i go home ill mess with the dizzy wires...anything else
