got a 91 civic hatch dx. just finished putting everything back together after doing the conversion. im getting a crank no start condition. iv got spark and fuel but it wont start. iv double checked all my wirring for the dizzy and ecu and it is all correct and im not sure were to go from here... any ideas?

also, before i did the swap my car was dieng at random times the idle would be very speratic woul fluctuate up and down or just be very high. somebody said it could be a tps... idk. but it eventually died and wouldnt start back up.

somebody please help... thanks!

 

ECU throwing any codes?

Try switching the two white wires on the distributor?

 

its not throwing codes... checked the white wires pretty sure there right swithced anyways same thing...wont start. i keep seeing people saying switch the tps wires but not sure which ones to switch?

 

The two outside wires on the tps plug. Leave the middle one where its at. But that shouldnt keep it from starting. Have the icm and coil checked. When i did my gsr swap both the icm and coil were bad and it wouldnt start. As soon as i replaced them it fired right up

 

well i just found my compression tester... it read a big fat 0 on 1 2 and 3... didnt even bother with 4!

 

Fried piston rings. A buddy of mine had this problem. It would crank over and over but never start. He took the motor apart and viola. Rings were shot worst than ****.

 

Zero in three of the cylinders? No one else found that odd? I've wasted a few motors in my time, but I've never seen zero across the board.

 

just took the head off and im pretty sure the exhaust valves on all the cylinders are burned up... they look pretty well screwed. can bad valves cause 0 compresion?

 

yes

 

yea thts what i thought... what would cause burned valves on all cylinders?

 

misfire, detonation etc..

 

FYI:
The TPS wires won't create a no-start situation.
The Two white wires do create a no-start.
You should have put a cap full of oil in each cylinder after finding the zero compression especially if the motor had been sitting for a long period of time.
