crx not getting any fire
i got a 1991 crx hf and it got wrecked two years ago but engine was running fine then. now i have finnally got aroung to fixing it. but can't get the engine to fire up it will turn over but nothing else i bought new plugs and wires. but that didnt help. i took a plug wire loose w/a plug on it to see if it was sparking but it wasn't. maybe i need a distributor cap an rotor button ?how could i tell if fuel pump is bad ? car sat outside w hood off for 6months.

Your post says no fire, yet in the body you ask if the fuel pump is bad
You gotta have 3 things for it to start and run, spark, fuel, and compression, eliminate any one of these and it ain't gonna start or run, period.
Sat for 6 months? Fuel you using any good?
Go back to the basics and fix any of the 3, or all of them

ok heres my thought iv never seen gas go bad in even a year were it was to the point that a car couldnt run off it chances are water got in your distributor so i would get another one there spendy so i would check cregslist and stuff im real sure after that it would run cause i left the hood open when it rained and 600 dallas later finaly learnt my lessin and if you want to check first if its a gas issue put some in the intake and turn it over be careful too much and a backfire and you have the worlds sportiest marshmellow
