Are you running obdo or 1?

Does the car crank anymore?

Could be the wrong ecu for the car

Could be starter

No spark could mean main relay. Crack it open and resolder the points.

Troubleshooting is so fun.

I could be wrong, but isn't the pr3 obd1?

Thats why I asked what obd you were running.

If you don't try and fix ur main relay, find a replacement. Usually you'll know its bad when you turn your key over and the yellow engine light doesn't come on, or it doesn't click. You should be able to hear the fuel prime, and the clicking sound.

My CRX has been starting, adn then not starting and I think its the main relay.

It really comes down to fuel, spark, timing, and the starter. Gotta check everything

Try changing out the Distributor. It could be bad.
