I've finally replaced all parts with Genunine Honda parts the Distributer I have replace the ignition coil, Honda Main Relay! NGK Spark plugs now getting Spark coming out of the wire I've check it with a spark checker and also pulling one of the plug and grounding it. Car would start up fine run for a while turn it on then off would start right up! Leave it for about Ten min tried to start again car won't start. The most I've gotten out of this car was for 4 day streight car week and back to old problem, that was the reason for replacing all after market with Genunine Honda parts and I'm still having same problem. PS I've also check the timing with a timing Gun right on the money! Is their something else I'm missing HELP!
