96' Accord -- Turns over but wont start
#21
just because the distributor is new doesnt make it good. if you have power going in and nothing coming out, (i.e. secondary spark) the distributor is junk.
i put 4 distributors in my 91 accord in 4 years.
they eat them.
unlikely its a fuel issue, as for a vacuum leak, it should still start but run like ***

Also: it likes to idle rough at start, but if I can manage to shift it into reverse/drive before the engine stalls then it runs normally. doesn't that tell us something?

Hey, would you answer these questions:
You put in new spark plugs, what brand did you use?
Where did you get the replacement distributor? Was is new? Did it come with the ignition control module (a small black piece with 4 wires plugged into it)? Did it come with a new distributor cap and distributor rotor?
Is the coil the original?
Have you cleaned the IACV and/or the FITV?
How about the EGR ports on the intake manifold?

Rich porter is a Canadian made distributor, it's very good. Google it and you'll see how many people recommend one.

test it, if alls well than look at the injector and its signal, pull the #3 plug and read its condition. you could have a bad valve or a bad head gasket.
merely suggestions, a misfire can be diagnosed, follow the path.
