Default Car wont start when warm

Hey guys I have a 95 civic d15z1 it starts perfect when its cold but it does not start when it's warm I'm tried ignition coil and did nothing and today I unpluged the water temp sensor and it ran ok died twice but started right up and was sounding like it was missing could that be my problem or is it more in the dizzy or relay??

Is the CEL on? Does it work? Is this an original VX, or a swap? Check the spark color when the car is refusing to start.

Ohm test the ECT sensor.

Also try unplugging the O2 sensor.

Check your timing, fuel, spark. Most likely timing is off some teeth if it runs when cold and like *** at op temp, or sputters and dies.

Engine coolant temp sensor. They fail at about the 20 year mark.

about $25.

my dizzy started failing on me and it would studder / shake the whole car. Finally failed and left me stranded on the side of the road.

Also check the main relay
