The firing order is 1,3,4,2. It's a honda so the rotating mass spins counter clock wise when you face the drive belt side of the engine. When you go on the oppisite side to the ditributor it spins clock wise. Set the #1 piston to top dead center and make sure the markings on the main crank pullley reflect that position. Then set the wires in their respective spots, assuming that you messed that up. If that doesn't fix it then maybe it needs to be fine tuned with a timing light and or by some one that knows a little more than you. I teased when I said that but I don't mean any harm by it. Any way, you may only need to use the timing light to fine tune it from what you've described. Next time mark all your postions before taking any thing off. It makes it easier when reinstalling. Good luck.
How you drive is your buisness. Remember that you're not the only one on the road!
