why the hell would i want a hyndai?!?! ok, it a 89 civic hatch. i got a jdm dohc zc. gots it all bolted in looking good and everything. but it dosnt start. turns over good but thats it. let me tell you what all wiring i did.

a1, a3, a5, a7, straight from the ecu to the fuel injectors. cut the wires that were orignally there since i just relpaced them.

c1, c2, straight from ecu to the cps. no plug soldered the wires.

orange and white wires in b10 and b12.

throttal position wires switched.

check engine light disables cuz i needed the pin.

ya thats what all wire changes i made.
i have no idea what to do now. i dont think im gettin spark but everybody thats helped me with it say i am. that and its just to ****in cold to spend more than 10 minuets outside.

check for fuel. does it prime? do u hear it? also maybe ur ignition coil is bad, that causes shitty spark. how are your sparkplugs, damaged? wires? injectors plugged in correct. wires put in correct order from dizzy? is every plug from your engine harness clipped into its correct spot?

What injectors are you using? You may need a resistor box.

So you haven't actually checked for spark? This would be a good start and will take less than ten minutes.
