i recently picked up a 93 honda civic ex with the d16z6 the head on it was back so i replaced it with a head off 94 honda with a d16z6 i replaced the distributor the rotor the spark plug wires and plugs i also replaced the alternator ( it was locked up completely) none the less i got everything put back together where it goes and when i start it the motor cranks but im not getting any spark and it doesnt seem like its getting any fuel either.... all the fuses look good.... i have no idea where to even start... help?

 

Check that the CEL cycles on and off when you turn the key on but don't crank. Pull the brake handle up and watch the BRAKE light on the dash while trying to start. It should stay on.

 

And what exactly does that do and wat happens if it doesn't stay on

 

If the BRAKE light doesn't stay on that means the ignition circuit is losing power when you turn the key all the way to III to crank. So that would make it crank but not start. Typically it is a bad ignition switch doing it.

 

where does one find the ignition switch?

 

Next to the keyhole on the column. It is the main switch controlled by the key to turn the car on.
