Icon3 Help b16 ! spark plugs issue

What's up everyone .. I need some major help .

I recently bought a 99 civic Dx with a B16 .
And I'm having some problems with it , every time I try to turn my car on it never does unless I clean the spark plugs . So all the time when I want to drive I have to clean the spark plugs in order for it to start

What could possibly be wrong ? What do I have to fix :/
Thanks in advance


Don't waste your time if your not willing to help -

Don't waste your money on that MSD sh*t.

Just your regular NGK copper plugs, don't need anything special, however stick to NGK.

Insure they are gapped correctly.
