My car is not foring in the #2 and #3 cylinder help!!!!!!!!!!
Ok this is the deal, I just put a LS in my CRX and im having problems with the 2 and 3 cylinder. The thing is that when i start my car up, it idles ruff and I tested the injectors, changed the spark plugs, wires, cap and rotor. When i drove it yesterday i didnt have any problem, but when i started it this morning it was running right. I did a compression check and all cylinders are at 175. And i tryed a different distributor, and i tryed my buddies ECU and i changed the 02 sensor. Whats the problem??????

Have you checked to see if there is spark at 2 & 3? Unplug the wire from the sparkplug and install another and ground it. Do they fire? If they do, make sure they are in the right place on the cap. I tend to reverse those two when I don't pay attention. The car will generally run, but not well.
If there is no spark on the test, I don't know, you have already tried the stuff I would replace under those conditions.

imma little confused with these two post...
the first post says that occasionally it runs rough when you first start the car and you 'feel' that cylinders 2&3 are at fault??? And the second post says that removing the plugs from 2&3 has no affect on how the car runs???

I tryed switching the wires around. I tryed everything possible with the distributor, and timing. Yesterday was my first day driving it since i did the swap, and it drove fine. But when i started up this morning it was idling rough and 2, and 3 were not even working. So basically now its only running on 2 cylinders.
