Ok, I don't get it. I'm throwing code 20. Electrical load detector for those who don't know.

I got fuel, I got spark, I got compression/air and my timing is correct, cause it did run yesterday and all the times before that.

I got the new battery and it turns over like normal and kinda tries to start.

I rewired the resistors into what would be the yellow/black wire on OEM honda injector clips (i decided to use the a set of GSX clips). I didn't check to see if they were spraying, I will do it tomorrow.

I'm getting what appears to be a powerful enough spark, I'll get some new plugs tomorrow since these aren't exactly new.

It ran before and yesterday, so the timing can't be off too much if any.

It has 180, 181, 180, 181 compression.

I just put some new gas in it today.

Lastly, my friend is blind or doesn't know the difference between red and black or positive and negative and hooked up the battery wrong.. I figured no big deal, replaced the fuse and it was supposed to be back to normal.

Help me diagnose this. I don't know where to start.
 
we were sleeping :)

i've done the backwards battery thing before... damn color blindness. :(

anyway, i poped that 25amp fuse, replaced it and nothing else came of it. so i don't think you fried anything. the fuse prevents that.

ELD is in the distributor. detecting load to adjust the rpms, such as when the a/c is kicked on. i don't see why the car wouldn't start because of this. what ecu are you running?
 
Last time I had the ELD code I replaced the dizzy and voila, but I was hoping I wouldn't have to this time.
 
I was reading on HT, and there was some BS about how canadian civics didn't have the ELD or something like that. I don't know.

The dizzy is still distributing spark, even to those crappy plugs. My timing is right. I have to recheck about fuel, but I can smell it. I'm going to disconnect my charge pipes, maybe they got clogged or something it blocking the flow..
 
IT RUNS.....

swapped the spark plugs a voila. Runs like a champ

Now I gotta drive it. :D
