Default Fix my car for some beer? I am moving...

I am having mucho problemas with my ride and I need some help. Anyone in the bay area who can make it to Palo Alto thisweekend and can fix my car will get a case of beer, any kind you want. email me at tgeny@hotmail.com and lets set something
up. This is of an electrical nature and is not my cup of tea. I posted about an ignitor a day ago it has all the details and I moving this weekend so I need to get the car at least running... see below

OK just bought and installed the new ignitor and nothing, no spark. I know I am getting fuel I pulled the plugs and there is gas in the cylinders. Now what? I am not getting any power to my aftermarket tach that is hooked up to the dist. Usually it jumps when the motor cranks but now nothing. I am thinking that there is a break in the system elsewhere. All the fuses are fine I checked them all. Now what??? I really need to get this thing on the raod before I go on my business trip this weekend. I live in the Bay Area and I will supply anyone who can get my car running a case of the beer of their choice. HELP!!!

Have you considered posting your question in the tech forum? You might get more responses there.

Yeah I did that but all the guys in the 5 gen civ forum care about B18c5 swaps and JDM corners more than actual tech stuff

I meant the TECH forum, not the civic forum. I have found help there many times. Good luck. bump

Make sure your plugs aren't fouled, simple, but a common mistake. If that doesn't fix then it is the main relay. Trust me I just fixed this problem last week in my car, new ignitor installed still no spark, put in a new main relay and it fired right up.

I have a brand new in packaging relay for a 92-95 civic if you're interested I'll sell it for $35 shipped next day to you to get your car running by the weekend.

actually got it running. It was the fuel pump fuse ? I dunno... I checked that fuse before and it was blown, so I change it, no good, then today I look and its blown again. I change it out and it fires?!? I dunno, what gives....
