Default h23 vtec wont start---distributor problems

ok guys i have 210 compresion all around and fuel is good too, i can see it when i take the plugs out its soaked in gas.

anyways i hooked up the timing gun to it and its on time right on the money. i hook up the timing gun to cyl#1 and it sparks on time, then i try cyl#2 the light on the gun doesnt work all time it stays unlit for seconds sometimes. cylinder#3 has no spark, and #4 is same as #2

what could it be? cap and rotor look fine.

Last time I checked. If the distributor is not sending a signal to the ECU, the fuel pump wont pump fuel to the motor..
