      Yes its boosted and the 3 bar is wired correctly. Its running Crome, i have spark, i have fuel. It used to sputter and idle around 200rpm, but die once i gave it gas. Now it doesn't even attempt to fire.

          well it has been sitting forever so bad gas is likely.

                  It is sposed to be 16* btdc and you need a timing light to set it correctly, but it should idle if it is close.

                          The dizzy won't go 180* off on a honda, unless obviously the cams or tdc was off.

                            how about wires backwards then..

                            wasn't sure about that. That import shit is wasy too complicated for me..

                            If I cannot work on it with a pair of plyers, a couple screwdrivers, a pipewrench and a bfh I won't touch it.

                                    I know, I was just saying that it's been done before.. and the car i'm talking bout wasnt a bad timing job, it happend to jump belt that far or something like that... I'm sure if kyle did the timing it'd have been done right.

                                      still not workin 😞

                                      If someone is truly confident in their skill at gettin shit to work, give me a call and you can try your hand at it. The lucky winner to get it to run gets no less than $100 cash.

                                      ...just a little incentive 😛

                                          I appreciate it a lot and i would love to have some help; however, i'm hoping to have it done sooner rather than later. I haven't had a car since last Christmas and need my baby back on the pavement stat 😛
