Hi,

I could use some help please. My problem started with the P302 cylinder misfire. I limped home 11 miles. While running my engine at home to trouble shoot, performance deteriorated significantly to the point where now the engine cranks but does not start. I also believe my catalytic converter might have been damaged because I ran the engine with a cyl 2 misfire and thought that this might be causing the CRANK BUT NO START condition.  I changed my plugs and coils 20K miles ago but changed them again because the coils came apart when I tried to remove them (aftermarket) to check them and the plugs. I used Hitachi coils and NGK plugs this time. All plugs looked healthy, no oil etc. I checked spark, & it was Okay. I performed valve lash adjustment (some valves were out of spec). Fuel pump energizes and I have fuel at the quick disconnect fitting which leads to fuel rail. I did not test actual fuel pressure however as I do not have the Honda adapter and gauge set up. I sprayed starter fluid in the intake to see what would happen and vehicle started as long as I maintained the spray. I’m starting to think maybe my key FOB /immobilizer could cause this, not sure, a coincidence if so. So, I’m a little confused now and not sure what to do next. Thank you for any help in advance!
