Hi I have a 1992 Honda Civic DX with 300k kilometers my problem is it won’t start. After the car was sitting for about 6 months I jump started the car and got a block from my apartment and the car broke down. So I pushed the car home. I tried troubleshooting it myself and I noticed I did not hear the fuel pump coming on. I researched the internet and it said these cars it’s usually the relay so I replaced that. Didn’t help. I tried troubleshooting the spark couldn’t find one watched one of Eric’s videos and I troubleshoot the car and the coil had no spark so I replaced the igniter. Didn’t help. I called a mobile mechanic, while he was here he sprayed some stuff into the oxygen intake and it did start for a second but wouldn’t stay running so he said the fuel pump. I replaced the fuel pump. Didn’t help. I tried reading the obd1 codes the mobile mechanic did not try to read them. I put the paper clip into the plug with the brown wire and the green wire with a white stripe. Check engine light doesn’t flash. Can someone please advise me what to do next.

You said the car sat for six months. Maybe it’s spoiled gas. And, you do have gas in your tank, right?
Not getting a voltage reading at the pump. There is gas in the tank. I took out the computer and opened it up and found a blown capacitor. I tried replacing it but it was pretty bad. and the through hole for the cap was quite large. I believe some of the wire runs may be open. So i believe I need a new board.
C14 is the typical culprit. You may do best to get a rebuilt or if you get another might just change the Caps before this manifests itself again
