89 civic no start

I've got an 89 civic with the 1.5 and it wont start. for a couple months its been hard to start. Than low and behold one day it just crapped out. No fuel pressure (it was the main relay) I fixed that by resoldering cracked joints. but now with fuel pressure there is no spark, I also already fixed that. Which leads to now, i have fuel I have spark, but I have no start. If i take out my spark plug and crank it excessive fuel shoots out. so I checked my fuel pressure regulator but its got vacuum and sprays fuel through my return line. Could the problem lie with too much fuel drowning my spark plugs? How would I go about troubleshooting at this point?

all fuses good relays good new fuel filter three clicks on main relay blue spark injectors spray well...etc.... help..

Re: 89 civic no start

you probably have the problem taken care of by now. I had the Same issue, for me the ICM went out. It was a pain to get to due to my lack of tools and its location. it was inside the distriputer and to remove it the screws were on the outside
