hey guys, i',m wondering if anybody can answer my questions. ok i have a 95 civic 4 door with the factory d16z6. it was just rebuilt w/vitara pistons and eagle rods, d16y8 mani and lexus 310 cc injectors(high impedence 14 ohms) and soon a 16g turbo. when i try to start it, the starter turns over but i have no spark or fuel (that is the injectors aren't opening and no smell of fuel on the spark plugs). the fuel pump primes and the main relay clicks. also, i've checked the dizzy w/my multimeter and there is power to the coil but no spark. at first, i thought my main relay was bad and swapped it with my friend's running eg hatch but it does the same thing. also when i was planning the build, i took my dash board out and had it repainted. after i put the dash together, the gauge lights stopped working but my warning lights still come on(check engine light, cruise control, etc) so i know that the ground to the gauges is still good. maybe i forgot to plug something up on the dashboard? no or bad ground to ecu?

I had the same issue with my car after I swapped a B16A into my 93 hatch. The starter and the main relay gave up on me and my car didn't start. When I changed the main relay, I could hear the gas pump working fine. I then tapped (gentley) the starter with a metal pole amd the engine was able to crank. I replaced the starter and now I don't have any issues starting my car.

put the factory injectors on there and see what that does, and then see if you even have the ecu plugged up.

could be a fuse as well...mine wouldnt start the other day nd it was a fuse...check them all, cause the other day my backup light fuse was blown and my gauges wouldn't work...they seem to all be connected or something...or like stated above, ecu, starter, etc. check least expensive first...
