    89 honda civic starter fuse
    I have an 89 Honda civic 4 door with a zc swap. I have done all the needed wiring, got fuel pressure but no spark. I've checked the distributor for power in and out and coil is good. I also can't start it from the turn of the key I have to hold a skrew driver to the starter to crank her over but when I do so the starter just wines up. I've looked for the starter fuse and it should be under the hood or the dash but I just can't find the er. So pretty much I need to know the exact location of that fuse?

    You mean the starter spins but doesn't turn the engine over? That's the starter bendix. Nothing happening at all at the key is telling me potientially the main relay is sticking... mine did that once after sitting a long time.

    Which ZC engine is this... there is more than one.

    As far as the wiring you did. Go back and check ALL of it again. Which ECU are you using.. was your LX a MPFI engine or a DPFI engine? I've done the DPFI to DOHC ZC ODB0, then later to B16A1 w/a later model electronic Integra Dash cluster. But I don't have acess to all the documentation and stuff at all times. And I did this years ago so its not all fresh in my mind.
