Default 99 civic si b16 crank no start.

Well on Thursday my si crapped out on me, throughout the weekend my buddies brother a certified mechanic worked on it but it still wont start. We put in a new crank sensor, still not start, so we thought it was the dist. We tried another obd2 dist. from my friend's gsr, still no start, we changed spark plug wires,spark plugs still no start. The Fuel pump seems to still be working, also the car cranks like it wants to start, but it seems to not be giving any spark at all...so don't really know why it's not giving spark with a new crank sensor, dist, and new spark plugs and wires. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

yep, go through the manual. But have you tried a different ECU? because it could be an ECU problem. And do you have any CEL's?

you cant beat the oem manual, its like having a japanese engineer diagnose your problem...

whereas the ones they sell at autozone are like having a red neck with a 1/2" wrench and a hammer trying to diagnose your problem
