94 civic 1.6l

it won't start. Have compression. Checked spark by pulling each plug and turning it over while it's grounded. All spark is nice white blueish color. Have fuel pressure, i even tried directly priming the cylinders with small amount of fuel via the plug hole. It should fire for at least a second or two yet i get nothing. Just cranks and cranks over. I don't get it. New plugs and wires. New fuel, premium. Bought the car cheap cause the guy couldn't get the plug wires out and gave up. All three things are present to make a motor run yet it won't.

what am i missing here?

 

are the wires in the correct firing order??

 

I marked the distributor end before removal of the wires. The motor ended was already off from previous owner and not having a book..... anyways, yes, they were backwards. Swapped around and started right up!! Never have seen a motor that wouldn't at least sputter and backfire when the firing order was wrong before.

hopefully this might help someone else in the future. Thanx all!!
