          Did you disassemble the dizzy at all? and possibly reassembled it 180 degrees out, Although it should still have spark even if it was.
          We had a case in at work the other day where an accord wouldnt start, It would crank but not start, found the problem was the battery not quite strong enough to create spark as well as crank at the same time.

          A "Finished" project car is never finished until its been sold.

          If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

            aw, go easy on him. Even you didn't know of the ignition relay before Juan mentioned it ... I know I surely never had.

                I'm totally lost. What else does the coil need besides the voltage you tested for, in order to function properly?

                  signal from the ignitor, which relies on the ecu, which relies on the sensors in the distributor.

                  yes i did, i used f22 electronics. i made sure it was assembled straight. i thought it could be that too, so i had tried jumping it and it didnt make a difference.

                          I had the same problem. I extensively tested the ignition system to find my problem. Check my post maybe you missed something.
