I would suggest the same thing. Possibility that one of the sensors in the distributor are bad (assuming your distributor has cps tdc etc in it). If so, you'll get your spark but attempting to start it with ether or anything else will cause intake manifold backfire. I've seen it happen before. The injector ground could be loose/bad as well. I don't recall where it is on the b20a but will later preludes it was bolted onto either the intake manifold(drivers side) or the thermostat housing. G/L
