I have 92 accord ex. Just did a transmission rebuild. Now it won't start. What I have done this far to remedy: checked for fuel, spark, and compression. ALL GOOD. Replaced igniton coil. Replaced distributor o-ring. Replaced ECU. Waiting on the TCU. Checked all fuses and relays. ALL GOOD. Checked all grounds. GOOD. The only other issue I am having is that the transmission seems to be stuck in park or gear. It will not roll in neutral. I need help if someone has any thoughts. I am trying to avoid dropping the transmission again.

So you checked for spark, fuel and compression and it is all good? We must be missing one of the, will the engine run on starting fluid? If so we need to check the injector pulse. Here is a video to help us get started.

The next video is of a noid test light on the number 4 cyclinder. All of them are communicating from the ecu to the injectors and pulsing as they should.
