Check your ignitor chip, and read, read, read...

It's safe to say that Florida is easily the fucking dumbest state on Zilvia. Oh my god.

Why the hell haven't you replaced the 75A fuse? That's more than likely the issue...

My friend had this exact same problem before, he also has an extensive history with Hondas so it's understandable you don't know much... On these cars there is actually a Flux Capacitor Fuse (FCF) located behind the driver side seat belt spindle. Once you take off your interior panel and look into the section where the seat belt mounts to the body, you will see it.

This fuse will blow if it detects stress in the electrical system as a precautionary to prevent an imminent fire.

Not sure what Hoffman was talking about with the function of the potato fuse. The potato fuse is actually for storing carbohydrates within the fuel tank to prevent rapid expansion of the tank (duh).

Well the 75a fuse has been replaced did that a while back. For the seat belt i don't have anything for the seat belts in the car it was gutted when i got it. its a 89 with the dohc swapped wasn't running when i got it. The engine harness was a mess so i got a uncut one from my boys shop so from the beginning its been confusing but been getting it. I bypassed the safety switch cause that was my problem from getting her to turn over.

It's the Florida fuse. A really tricky fuse mounted above your catalytic converter, and Floridians are the only ones who think it's there when they hear of it.

did you put blinker fluid in the cylinders to see if the compression went up higher??
