Default 97 Civic EX w/ B18b1, have spark, have fuel, only vtec codes, no start, help!!!

Hey everyone, as the topic states I have a 97 Civic EX w/ an OBD2a B18b1 in it. I'm getting spark, i'm getting fuel, but it wont fire. The only code its throwing is #22 for a Vtec pressure valve...which doesn't matter since I don't have vtec. I'm just using a civic EX ecu for right now to make sure the car runs until my jumper harness gets here this week, then i'll be using a an obd1 P75. The car has a DX harness due to not being able to find an EX harness, I did the IACV fix, so its good there. Any ideas on whats going on?? Timing is also fine, i'm lost...

The dizzy is an OBD1 dizzy rewired to plug into the OBD2 dizzy plug on my harness. So will that work w/ my jumper harness and OBD1 ecu?
