Jdm obd1 h22 (from hmotorsonline)
1988 Crx HF

The Engine is turning over fine. I actually heard it over the phone.
Fuel pump is coming on and priming.
Car is using rywire 0bd0 to Obd1 ecu jumper harness with chipped P28
note: Also has used stock p28, to see if its the ecu. And disconnected the jumper and tried a PM6 obd0 ecu to see if it was the jumper.
The ground is on the thermostat housing correctly.
The distributor is the Hmotors one and doesn't have a spare.
Also all fuses in cabin and engine bay are good

Im trying to help, over the phone and that can be a pain.

Problem: no spark on # 1 spark plug?

The only thing I could think off after I confirmed all the above was Bad Coil, or Bad Wires. The are both from Hmotors and Ive never heard of any faulty Dizzys from them?

Any advice could help. He does have a daily, but small bugs like this are irritating.

or a bad icm

 

by the looks of it, would be cheaper to buy a used working dizzy than a new icm

 

take one out of a d or b-series dizzy and try it

it should bolt up

 

worth a try...guess he'll check that after the coil..

 

check grounds before you go crazy.

 

it was a bad coil from hmotors...replaced with b series. and it started right up. coil actually tested ok, with a multimeter....hmm...

 

you sure it wasnt some of the contacts then?

 

couldnt tell ya. Just know the coil tested good with the multimeter and we forgot about it.....then just decided to try another coil after a few days and it started right up
