Would taping in to a wrong vacum line could possibly have something to do with this. Here's a pic of my engine bay before the install, and the little red arrow shows the vacum line that I tapped in to for the BOV and the boost guage. Could this be possibly causing the prob.?

Is that the EGR you tapped into? Id say use the brake booster line.....but nah that wouldnt cause it to not start. it would start, but it would run like ***...............yo this is a stupid question, but do u have gas in the tank? Are the plugs gapped right?

Yes, I have half a tank of gas, and the plugs at first were gapped like 0.62, we gapped them to 0.41, in the middle of what honda recommends, and still didnt start.

Like I said, Im stumped. We tried everything, and are running out of ideas. All the sensors and such should all be in. Is it possible to flood a motor so bad that it would take days to dry out?

just take it somewhere before you pull your hair out, and let us know what the prob was and what caused it, maybe some of us can avoid it if we know what it was. good luck man, that sux!

I posted on Turbod16.com and they seem to think its ignition related. O well, Ill try at it tommorow one more time (new NGK's will be here), and if nothing improves Im calling a tow truck.

Honestly man you should have never taken all the wires off the dizzy, or touched the timing.........that was un necessary, and you could have avoided this problem. Not trying to be a Dad or anything, just hoping that you learn from this situation. I hope its an easy fix man. I wish i lived over there, Id come help ya out.

Its got to do with the ignition in some way shape or form..........is your battery juiced? If it were me I would take the dizzy apart again, and put it back but use a haynes manual for guidelines..........just dont give up. Give it a day, walk away, whatever u gotta do.
