so, I bought a 92 Accord F22A6 MT when I was in the Navy, it had shot piston rings but otherwise was perfect. Now that I am out of the Navy I have had time to rebuild her. I replaced the rings and what not as I should according to the manual. Its worth noting that I also took this tome to remove the entire A/C system , the Cruise Control unit, and rerouted the fuse box into the cabin. when I put it back together I made sure to torque everything and lube the snot out of her . now that i am ready to restart her, she just wont do it. I tracked down a fuel pump issue and fixed the main relaywires that broke. I havent checked the ignition system yet, but I want to make sure I have not missed anything before I delve into that jungle of wires. I think I got the timing right, if not its only off by a tooth. she did sit for over a month during the rebuild. does anyone have any experience or knowledge on this issue, i would love to hear any of your suggestions and advice. did I miss any info? thanks guys and galls

when you say " she just wont do it" what are u implying?
does it turn over but not fire?
does it not turn over?
when i was like 17 i had an issue like this that left me confused for a few days. its turned out i forgot to re install the ECU fuse.
so now i always try to remember the simple stuff before i tear stuff apart.
but we need more descriptive info before we can help bruh

Yeah, my bad. It turns but won't fire. It doesn't even sound like it's trying.I know for a fact the fuses are good.... unless the ECU fuse is obscure or hidden. My best guestimate is ignition coil or distributor cap. I heard a couple electric popping sounds the first few times I attempted firing her up.

You really shouldn't have done any of the other things as it can, and in this case has, impeded your ability to test your rebuilt engine. I'm sure you're aware of this now.
Get a used distributor and coil from the junkyard to use as test pieces. If they don't work, take them back or keep them as spares.My Members' Ride Thread - It's a marathon build, not a sprint. But keep me honest on the update frequency!

Well if you don't see the CEL when the ignition is turned on I wouldn't bother testing the ignitor. I would say that it might be an ECU power or ground issue. Check to make sure the main ground on the thermostat is clean and tight.
If you still need to test the ignitor after that here it is;

I know that it says that it is for a Prelude, they use the same ignitor and wire colours. Testing most Honda ignitors is the same procedure no matter what chassis.
or you could use this one; http://autorepair.about.com/library/a/1h/bl415h.htm
