It seems to be a common denominator in the no start issues. You could be getting spark, but not strong enough. If your plugs, wires, and cap/rotor are new, chances are your coil has gone bad.

A z6 valve cover doesn't fit a D15b7 :eh:
And A P28 is the wrong ECU to be using for a D15b7 ... Unless you meant to say you have a D16z6 mini-me swap :?

First, did you triple check that the firing order/plug wires are correct? Spark won't do any good if it's firing on the wrong cyls.
Second, is the ignition timing correct?
What distributor are you running?
Are all the grounds good? (valve cover, transmission and the most important, thermostat housing)

- Wed Sep 17, 2014 9:13 pm #348739 You can get an ignitor at the junkyard from nearly any other Honda. Accords, 4th-6th gen Civics, Integras...

It's pocket sized :lol:

Bring little vice grips for the screws that are often seized or stripped.
