I got a distributor from auto zone, and the only thing right now stopping my car from starting is the distributor not doing its job properly. I made a post earlier but the guy who replied was mean and i don't want to take advice from jerks. SO he said that the distributor was bad. I bought the thing new. If that not the problem, i have a good idea what it could be: the wiring. SO could someone help me find the location as to what the wire do on the distributor and if I'm supposed to get volts of any coming from them? AND PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD BE NICE, I hate getting a jerk responding to me thinking i don't know ANYTHING, even if i don't. at least ACT nice jeezz...

Assuming you checked the main relay correctly.....

Line that timing up dead on
Put good gas in it

Yes you replaced it with a shitty autozone one which is proven to perform like s**t on a Honda, which is why I said to get a good OEM one.

Did you check the coil or the ICM? Is it throwing any codes?

Yeah I got one of the books (Chilton) with the wiring and I follwed the wires from the distributor to the plug thats right before it goes into the cockpit area and the wires leading to the distributor are not giving me any electricity...but the other wires are fine....strangely I ALSO USED A TEST LIGHT I almost forgot to mention
