alright so i got a d15z1 i jus swapped and evrything to my knowledge is hooked up and it should start but jus cranks over no backfire or sputter. all fuses are hood, main relay is good, thermostat ground is on and the only CEL is for the vtec solenoid cuz its not wired yet. the fuel rail is prmimg and i jus put a new dizzy on it and its getting good spark..did not do a compression test yet but i will soon. if you guys can help me out that would be great, it might just be something stupid i missed... any ideas?? Thanks guys! civic-eg<3
