Re: '91 Civic Won't Start

it kind of sounds like it jumped time on you. i would get a timing light on it.

are you sre you have the spark plug wires in the correct order? that will make it sound like a backfire out the intake. starting from c #1 (generally the lower left) directly to the right would be #2. above #1 is 3. directly to it's right is #4...starting from the driver to passenger side 1,2,3,4.

it doesn't exactly sound like it but have you checked the ground on thermostat housing?
