I have a 89 CRX Si, and a friend said he could put a new engine in it. Does anyone know why after an engine swap there would be no spark? Its getting power, and fuel, but no spark. I did not do the engine work, but I guess its up to me to find out why now it doesnt work. The same guy that did the motor has another one that is the same way... new engine, no spark. Any ideas? ANY suggestions would be greatly appreciated. !!! Thanks

ummm, check ur spark plugs, distributor cap in case its all soiled, ignition coil, all that fun stuff. not too expensive for that stuff unless u need a new distributor.

Give some more detail on the swap like what engine and what not. If you had to redo some wiring then that's probably where this problem lies.
