Re: 95 CX with D16Z6
are the plugs any good (i know that sounds like a dumb question, but really are they)? also is it timed properly? didn't the cx have a different wire harness from the si/dx wire harness?

Re: 95 CX with D16Z6
it can just be the timing. can be off a couple of teeth and it will give you problems, but check the distributor and if you may have pinched any wires in the process.

Timing would not cause my plugs to not fire at all. Timing is good. I have gotten a car to start and run with the timing off 2 teeth. This one dosen't even think about starting.

Re: 95 CX with D16Z6
My bad. I reread your initial post and saw that you had already done that.
1. Disconnect the 2 pin connector from the distributor.
2. Turn ignition on and measure voltage between BLK/YEL terminal and body ground. If there is no voltage measured, then you have an open between your ignition switch and the 2 pin connector. If you have voltage, then reconnect the 2 pin connector and go to step 3.
3. Measure voltage at the ECU harness connection between A21(+) and A26(-), then measure voltage between A22(+) and A26(-). You should read approx. 10V. If there is no voltage, then you have a short/open between the ECU and igniter.
The problem is most likely in your ignition switch since you have already check the distributor and ECU.
Let me know if this helps or not....
