Default App_EFSDN's 3rd EF/ED Sedan Build

Well after trading the last sedan for a crx a couple weeks ago i realized that a 4th gen sedan is really the only car for me. So i sold the crx and picked me up another 4dr. Its a 91 gold LX with 176k, bone stock, and has some rust but i got a really good deal on it and i'm happy with the fact that i have another one. I've got lots of plans for this one. Its mostly going to be a restore build but with some goodies and surprises. Here are some specs and future plans:

Specs:
1991 Honda Civic Sedan LX
176k on Body & Motor
Rust Everywhere on both quarters
Gold In color
5sp
New Axles
New Tires
New Brakes and Rotors
New Spark Plugs & Wires
New Dizzy Cap
New Fuel Pump & Filter
New Lights all the way around


Plans:
Volvo or VW Lip
MPFI Swap
Slammed
Sick Stance/Wheel Combo
All Rust Fixed
New Paint
Optional Audio Console
Broadway Mirror
Jdm Armrest
Jdm Side Markers
Window Visors
Rear Window Visor
EF2 or Prelude Fogs


Pics Will Be Up Later Tonight. Comments/Suggestions Are Welcome

okay well the car is running but its running like its not getting gas its sputtering in every gear. But i know its getting fuel cause all fuel related things are brand new could it be due to it being WAY outta time and its just not sparking at the same time its shooting fuel? Please Help

EDIT:
Or could it be from the code 6(ECT SENSOR) causing it to do it?

Well got the the timing in check and everything is going perfect she is running like a champ sorry i havent been able to post pics work is the only time i have enet access and ive been super busy. Picked up some new parts this weekend too.

JDM Side Markers
ODB1 wiring harness for obd1 injector wires for multipoint.
Short Shifter
Should be getting tan dc console from jon this weekend
And new fenders with side marker holes already cut out and a new drivers side window cause it really sucks driving in the rain when you cant roll up your window.



And i've decided to go with the rusted hood look just cause its something i havent done or tried so it should be interesting
