Icon6 1999 Honda Civic Ex HELP with: compression test

I have a D16y8, my car recently got stolen. Aside from cosmetics, it appears they stole the following engine components: Cold Air Intake, Distributor, and Plugs. It's not much, I replaced it all; however my car wont start. I have fuel and spark... not sure about compression? So basically I want too know if their is some type of component they stole and would inhibit my car from starting and might have over looked.. or if the ******** blew my motor... any advise?????


I need a How To guide for a Compression Test

well did u reset the mechanical timing? IE: crank/cam. also its hard to do but did u get dizzy in 180(you have to really force it in 180 out).

basics for any engine to run is fuel/spark/compression/ and all in correct order(timing)
