So the SOB will not start !
OBD2B civic ITR motor
Am already out of ideas of what could be going wrong.. Pulled the motor out to do some cleaning on the bay and now it will not start..
I know am getting spark, if I pull the wire from the cap I can see a spark on all 4 of them
I am getting fuel b/c I smell it, and I see the injectors squirting
I have checked all my fuses 4times inside and outside
I have all 3 grounds
Starter cranks like a champ
I change dizzys


Anyone ? ? ?

I spend all-day yesterday and I could not get the SOB to start
