I have a 92 civic ex
-2 summers ago the car sat for a year while i was deployed....started right up when i came back
-i parked the car back in decemeber
-month ago i pulled the Distributor to replace the oring....i install it exactly the same.....its covered in grease so when i pulled the bolts off it was clean underneath....when installed i had a guide

-the dizzy cap is clean and less than 8 months of run time
-checked for spark on the plugs
-fuel pumps kicks on and can smell fuel in the spark plug hole
-double checked all wiring...everything seems to be pluged in
-battery is working fine
-starter works
-the motor is starting but doesnt even try to kick over

Any ideas
I had my friend move the dizzy to find its spot while i was starting the car
Please help!!

i was reading through this site
i think when i was replacing the o-ring....i may have put the key on the wrong way
the lines not lined up which makes the dizzy set at 180?

i will be checking this tonight when i get off work

 

Do you have a compression tester??
Make sure the timing is spot on at tdc. Double check,triple check.
The distributor doesn't sit in right when its 180 degrees off.
If you had a hard time threading the mounting bolts in chances are its on backwardds.
Do a compression test on all cylinders.

 

I pull the dizzy and corrected it and made cylinder 1 tdc
Still didnt start
I will try comb test tmrw

 

If everything else checked out like you said it has to be the compression or the spark plug wires are mixed up.

 

Agreed double check spark plug firing order.

 

Im going to pull the dizzy out spin it 180 and install
Hope it fires up

Edit: wrong, dizzy only goes in one way

 

Post a pic of your spark plug wires and they're position.
Also get that compression test done.
Sears sells testers for about 30 bucks good tool to have for any car
