This is absolutly a timing problem. Start with your distributor by taking the cap off and looking at the internals. Check to make sure all the wires are connected that the rotor on the end is not loose (should not turn. This one happened to me not once but three times with different hondas. The screw came out of the rotor and timing went haywire. ) Then check your cap to make sure it is in good condition and move to your wires and plugs. Finally check your timing and belt that is the hardest so do it last hopfully you will get it running
