not that anyone cares or visits this site anymore, but I took the car into a garage to troubleshoot the no start condition. He's gotta good reputation so hopefully he'll have it running in a week or so.

Cool, be sure to keep up the thread even though no one is ever around these gays >.<

thanks, posting the answer to any problem in a post is really important. i dont know how many threads i've looked up for an answer to different yet very specific problem or even to this same question and they are usually left blank.

did you ever source the problem? im actually just finishing uti and going into BMW to be trained by BMW north america...its night and day different what i know now...but your problem is strange....usually when you cant get spark its not reading or recognizing the ckp...if the ecu doesnt see a signal from the ckp it wont send a spark signal...there are ways to test your ckp..usually resistance is the best way...if i can help let me know...have you made sure your ckp is good..not the wiring but the sensor itself? Benn a long time since ive been on this board

It's been a long time for me as well and the forums are almost dead it seems. The cpk that I installed was from my previous working although melted piston motor that still ran. I cant test it as the car is now at a garage. Ive installed every part available from the h22a4 onto the h22, including the oil pump and sensors. The only part I didn't have to set the car back to stock was an ecu. I just sourced an original ecu for the car and handed it over to the mechanic who is getting the whole car re-programmed @ Honda. Hopefully they find out what it is or it'll be sitting for another 10 years. I know for one thing I'm finished with Honda's after this swap.

update: new ecu (type sh - P5P), new immobilizer w/ keys, and all reprogrammed to honda spec's. Still no start

Update: The car has finally started. It was a faulty crank position sensor, and I was 2-3 teeth off on timing.

The cps was working when i pulled it off of the old motor and it sat in a zipock bag on my workbench for a long time. approx 7+ years. During this time it was stuck together since both ends were magnets. I am thinking this caused the sensor to malfunction and read low. There are still some minor things to fix, like adding the correct vtec solenoid and installing the cai, putting the back seat in and giving it a good going over.

all these years later and im here reading threads from another life time" I need HELP" badly. if I got a hold of you I know I can start my lude. ive got the same no spark issue but gets fuel & it has power in all the harness points. it turns over fine but no spark. my build is a 1993 bb1 vtec prelude usdm jhmbb1 model that came p13 h22A1 so my cars shell is obd1. I installed a h22a7 type r head on a h22a4 euro r block using my obd1 h22a1 distributor eliminating the crank sensors for obd2 as done for this swap. no spark but fuel has no problem. the grounds at the thermastate is tight & so is the belt side mount ground to valve & the trans ground is stable. anyone read anymore"
