Ok. I replaced the alternator in my car last week and everything has been good.

I go to start my car this morning and it dosent want to start. It has no codes than,until i go to start it it,than it throws a code 16(something to do with injectors??) The car sounds like it wants to start,but it dosen't.SO i searched Honda tech and came down too two possible culprits. Main Relay or Ignitor. Now I did have a boucny Tach(wich leads me to ignitor) BUT.... the tach got fixed when I adjusted my timing(car was bogging badlt. I fixed the timing and the tach problem went away) SO i opened up my distributor,cleaned the terminals on the ignitor and made sure they were tight. Problem still happened. So I dont know whether its the ignitor or the main relay. The main relay looks good,but I don't know what a bad one looks like either though/

The Car is a 1990 CRX DX w/ a 1998 Y7 swap. Still obd0 and still DPFI. Stock Dx ecu. Need help. Thanks

 

I took out the relay and it still does it.bump

 

Is the fuesl pump priming when you turn the car to ON? It should run the fuel pump for about 3 seconds. If you don't hear the fuel pump then the main relay is normally the culprit.

I don't know why you would look at the main relay for a code 16 though.

Check your wiring for the injector resistor box and see if that's all good.

 

i would check the injector resistor box for code 16...measure resistant

 

When measuring the resistor box, is the car in the on position? And what is a good reading?

 

probably off, resistors are a constant thing, they always resist. no power needed.
