Well we,ve seen this before so I will be brief
Swapped Dizzy
check compression
all grounds good
check all under hood relays and fuses
changed main relay

you can smell the fuel but no spark.
96 auto ek its a friends drove threw a puddle about up to the door. She drove it for the next 5 days no problems after that to work timing belt did not break and compression is normal any fusees under the dash I should be looking for?

was the carpet wet ? poss wet pcm ? does the check engine light cycle ?

 

no water in the car at all I have an eg so Im not 100% if there any fuses I should be looking for. No the ecu was dry as can be i checked also. Check engine light is on but I guess ill have to pick up my boys codee reader because dont now how to do a obd2 car without it.

 

ok so when you turn the key on does the light go off after 3 sec's or stay on ?

 

was the dist from a running car ? just trying to confirm the coil and icm is good.

 

yea from my running 2000 y8, and then another running 95 ex one. so then I swapped the entire thing didnt notice but I believe the check engine light stayed on

 

ok if that's case you need to start checking under dash fuse box .

 

check the # 9 15 amp fuse in the under dash fuse box

 

Well I spoke with my friends wife today directly and she was more specific on what happen. She drove through a puddle and it was up to the doors but she didn't just go to work and park it. She kept driving it for 5 days than on the following Monday the car did not want to start. I'm going to go take a better look at her car today with a power probe to test the fuses.

It could still be the ECU but since she kept driving it I'm going to re-check the main under the hood and check the fuses under the dash. She doesn't have the fuse cover for under the dash so I'm gonna have to pull them 1 at a time. It would be Great if someone could give me a diagram that I can print. (yes I looked for one in detail)

It also has a definite gas smell from trying to start it repeatedly so I'm going to pull the main and take out all the plugs to make sure its not flooded with gas.

 

Heres the underdash fuse panel diagram, thank NOFX https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1966666

 

Shes the best. Thanx for the link.
