welcome to the forum. Check timing belt and timing, check compression.

only 2 items I can think of is the main relay, and the ecu. Where is your #1 cylinder located on your prelude? If you have air, fuel, spark and all are in the correct cylinder at the correct time, it should fire off. What is your compression in your 4 cylinders.
