Engine Wouldn't Start... No Spark

Hey TCC..

I have to post this up because i've been asking around and many ppl have this problem with their Hondas!!

Car- 1992 Honda Hatch
Problem - No spark

So i arrived home one afternoon and as I was entering my house my father told me to park on the road because we're expecting company... I try to start my car but it just wouldn't catch!

After a lot of though I desided to change the ignition coil first, and spark plugs. The wires were brand new so I didn't bother..

Installed the parts but nothing changed.. very eager to get the damn car started I went out baught the distributer cap w/ rotor but nothing seemed to help..

I read many posts from other ppl who were experiencing the same problems and they changed everything including the distributor which gets very costly..

Ignition coil - 90$
Spark plugs - 30 $
D cap and rotor 35 $

Finally I woke up this morning and found my old ecu ... thinking the computer has something to do with it.. and surely enough... i put the computer in and fired up beautifully!

CHECK YOUR COMPUTERS GUYS!!!!!

Btw... i returned my ignition coil lol can't go wrong with 90 BUcks
