Read that and tell me what would be bad.... disconnecting one of the dist plugs??? YA!!! I hope you hooked em back up?!

Slow96GSR: For the purpose of making sure the motor was not flooded??
Don't exactly want fuel coming out while your ignition leads are floating around trying to create a spark, huh?!?!

Bit hard to start the car without the spark plugs in and fuel pump off ;)

Well I was just making sure. I mean I've seen some stupid stuff in my days!!!! Is it story time?!!!

there is so much extra crap in this forum!!!
to clear ur engine of flooding simply cranck with the exelarator on the floor(as advised in the civic instruction manual !!)no need for removing ur plugs (sorry WEQ)

ur dizzi only slots in one way so dont waste ur time removing it and spining it at 180degrees

if u have spark then stop messing around with the dizzi and to check the lead order search d15a and observ some pics of running engines

also follow ur wiring harness to make certain u didnt miss any sensors(this is very important)
then check ur vac lines are all conected in the right place, if ur not sure then follow the same steps as i recomended for the lead kit

to check if ur timing belt skewup did any damage get a compression tester and cranck the motor with the starter (any reading that is higher than 6:1 should start)
and if you havent set your timing belt perfectlly then your car is very likely not to start

BUY SOME AEROSTART this and various spirits is sometimes the only thing that will wake up a tired motor!!

you may also consider the ecu check as this will help you eliminate a possible problem
check ecu wiring and fuses too

ok, you have done very well so far.

i really hope you have not got a valve that is slightly bent and not closing.

it sounds like it *could* start (as you say it is 'kicking' slightly)

now - get a NEW set of clean spark plugs (or borrow), and a FULLY charged battery.

put both in and give it a go.

i reckon it will fire...

thanks mate

when u say 'set your timing'

do u mean make sure the camshaft pulley and the crankshaft pulley are aligned before putting on the timing belt?

ask yourself this dose the exhaust tip smell like feul after cranking the motor?? if NOT then buy AEROSTART!!!!!

btw how do you spell dose???

yeh spark plugs are brand new

i have a battery charger and i charged it over night...the machine said the battery had fully charged by the morning

it kills me that it 'kicks' like that

would could be the cause of that

or more like, what could be stopping it from actually turning over....?

maybe the aerostart will definately try that

camshaft pulley has 2 lines which line up with ur valve cover left to right
and the cranck has three little lines on the rim these should be allianed with a marker or arrow on the block (top dead center)
and now you put ur timing belt on(skrew this up and ur shooting blanks)

hmm this might be the reason

i was told that u had to line it up with the single white line and not one of the 3 lines on the crankshaft pulley.

no dont earth pin D7
thats the DLC TX/RX
earth D4
