Well, I repalced the normal tune up things on a car. So then I went to start her back up and she wont start. It cranks and gives fuel just no spark. So I then tested the coil, and it was shot. I also replaced the ignition module while I was at it. I wrapped everything back up and tryed starting it, and it will not start. I hold the #1 plug wire up to something metal and have someone turn the key, and I get no spark. What would be the problem? The car was running before I did the tune up.

 

What kinda car?

 

Looks like you're in the wrong forum if you're talkin about the CRX.

 

It is a 1991 Accord!

 

Check distributor.....not cap and rotor ......replaced many on early 90's Accord...you should be able to get a reman from Honda.....or call and ask a Honda service writer thats experienced(been with Honda 5 plus years) if you don't believe me, most will be happy to say what the common problems are. And just stick to the basics, this link may shed some light. I just thing your overthinking it.

What do I need to check on the distributer? It moves the Rotor Around the right way. So what would I have to check?

 

Internal clearance inside check these links
