    Unhappy Help with Civic D16A8 - not starting.

    Hi Guys,
    I just bought a 92 Civic EH9 sedan with a D16A8 engine.
    I got it cheap as it wasn't running, and the kid had no idea what was wrong with it. Now I'm stumped too!
    I did an ECU check, and everything came up fine - MIL just stayed on.
    It's getting spark, i've replaced dizzy & rotor, its getting fuel, has power to the injectors, and as the plugs are wet I can only assume they are working. I've triple checked the plug leads, to make sure they are in the right order.
    So what else could it be?????

    The only other thing that I think is not normal, is when I turn the ignition on, the fuel pump comes on, and does not cut out. I was under the impression that it only stayed on momentarily to prime the system. Could this be the problem? How do I fix it?

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, otherwise I'll have to get a mechanic out I guess!

    Thanx in advance.
