I believe that if you have swapped parts on the distributor then it is likely that you have the key on the shaft 180 degrees out.

i thought so, but the layout on the spark plugs is like it should be, #1 is left down, and car is running. doublechecked it today!

remove and rotate the key on the distributor so that it is rotated 180 degrees, then try the CPR.

Are you removing the part form the distributor and rotating it, or are you just turning the shaft?

this is what i asked before i ordered:

https://www.hondata.com/forum/viewtopic ... 19&t=19347

you told me no issues.

now i was reading the lots of posts with issues, caused by ecu's, distributors but no issue with your stuff.

now i spent 515 euros, this are more than 600 dollars, for the cpr and another 400 dollars for, of course new coils, which i immediately after unboxing had to cut and made them worthless.

now i spent more than a week of time, bought a new distributor to find the problem in MY setup, and then i get this answer from you:

Please download the RMA form from https://www.hondata.com/downloads/rma_form.pdf and fill it out completely and use RMA# xxxx. It will be $75 for international return shipping. There may be other charges depending on what we find. We will test your CPR box on our running shop car.

so i should spend another 50 dollars to ship it to you, 75 dollars that you ship it back to me plus the costum and fees again and also the charge for repairing a brandnew unit out from the box??

are you serios?! is this costumer friendly?

i was reading a lot of posts now, so i have to calculate, that i get my cpr back and you tell me, that all is good with the unit and i have to try another ecu, distributor (maybe the 3rd one is working) or something else.

i should charge you my time, the coils and mostly my nervs and sleepless nights!!

i have to work hard for my money, and you waste it!!

i want a solution for this
