Hey everyone,
I have been trying to help out a friend with a 92 Civic LX that died and we can't get any spark out of it. See below:

I was wondering if there is ANYONE reasonably close to Norwalk CT that would have a good ECU that I can try on this car before we go and buy one....it would be GREATLY appreciated and worth lunch ! 
Anyone ?? Thanks !!!

I PM'd you, but any 92-95 Honda or Acura ecu will plug into that car and start it.

Here's an update:
So I just finished trying a few things....I took apart the ignition switch, didn't look bad really but I did sand / clean all of the contacts and once I put it back together I had the diagram of what wires needed to have continuity when the key was in certain positions, checked it all out, all had continuity in the right places. Tried to start the car, NOPE still no spark.....just for the hell of it I also took off the upper timing belt cover and distributor cap, everything was lined up where it was supposed to be...
So back to sqaure one, I'm still at a complete loss here....

Have you checked the coil?
The distributor can line up all day long, if you have a bad coil, you will get no spark.
Like the above reader, I am too lazy to go check the other post.
Yup I checked the coil by the specs in the Chiltons book I have, all are within spec. I tried a rebuilt distributor first and that had a coil in it as well. After it still wouldn't spark I put the original distributor back in and bought a new ignitor from Honda thinking that was the problem.....
