Got another problem

This cars wearing me out. Alright, my number 3 piston is not firing, it does have spark. The ECU is not throwing any codes. Im thinking maybe a clog in the injector, but really not sure. What do you guys think.

i am new at this but would a fuel injector cleaner work?

Can you swap the fuel injector and see if that makes another one die and that one work?

Well you have air and spark entering your #3 cylinder.....but no fuel. Best bet for you to do is buy a new injector. I bet its clogged or just failed. You could try fuel injector cleaner, it may unclog it. Also buy a new fuel filter from Honda, its like $12. That may be the reason why the injector clogged in the first place.
