hi im new to the site but am in need of real help with my integra. its a 91 with a freshish motor swap that came from japan with 38000 mile and now has about 70000 atleast when i got it. it has a mexican wire job but everything seemed to work the car ran fine with little to no problems. last week it started to hesitate on start up but would always start atleast on the second try. i was driving just the other day and everything was fine then out of no where the car died and lost all spark. i had to tow it home. now it cranks but wont start. its cranking kinda fast now but no spark. i changed the coil, rotor, and distributer cap and nothings working. i checked the main relay and all 3 clicks work so its good. i checked the ecu for error codes and the ecu flashes 1 quick light when i turn the ignition on then nothing..... i have no idea what else it could be please help.

Theres a 10 amp ecu fuse that you should check, had the same prob went trough everything timing ect. the fuse was loose or some thing every thing else was on but no spark of course mine shut down going up a bridge and had a fire truck blocking my lane talk about under pressure to solve a problem.

make sure timing belt is turning intake camshaft cuz if its not your distributor wont make spark or bad distributor

I have a problem with my integra also. It only happens some of the time. But, it wont start either. I have to pop start it. Sometimes, I don't even have to pop start it, if I roll the car just a little then try starting it, it will start. But, it is not always the issue. I have a new starter, distributor, ecu, I replaced damn near almost all the little parts, here and there, since I bought it 2 years ago If it wasn't one thing it was the other. But, now the only issue I have with it is the starting when it wants, (besides all the little oil leaks I have that has not caused any damage, yet)
