1990 Honda Civic LX-1.5 engine. No power to fuel pump and no spar

1990 Honda Civic LX-1.5 engine. No power to fuel pump and no spark from distributor. Is there anything that would cause both to go out at the same time? I've checked all fuses with voltmeter on both terminals in the box under the dash and under the hood - they have power on both terminals of each fuse. The main relay (under dash at driver's knee) only clicks 1 time instead of 3. I also have a wrecked 90 Honda Civic with same engine so I've swapped main relay, computer, and even the entire distributor with the other one to no avail. Any ideas - besides send both to scrap yard?

I have a 1990 Honda Civic Hatchback, it loses power going up hill

I have a 1990 Honda Civic Hatchback, it loses power going up hills, goes from 60mph to 40mph rapidly. Once I am over the hill it runs fine again. Also when losing power going up hill it wants to overheat if i try to give it more gas, but only during this time. Other than this it never overheats or slows down.

white smoke is caused by water or coolant entering cylinders, if in over flow it will look like a chocolate milk shake. check on oil dipstick to see if you can see traces of water or anti - freeze in the oil. if you see white smoke coming from tail pipe that smoke means that your car has a leaking cylinder-head gasket or a cracked head gasket. If there is just a leak in the gasket, the problem should be relatively easy and inexpensive to fix, but if the problem is a cracked head gasket, chances are the repair will be a lot more complicated and expensive. If the problem is a leaking head-gasket cylinder you will see white smoke, because the faulty gasket is allowing air and fuel to enter the cooling system. As this mixture burns, white smoke is produced and exits through your tailpipe. If you are familiar with the location of the cylinder head gasket you can check it yourself, otherwise take the car to your mechanic and ask him to check the gasket for damage. may not be but just check it out! if its water or anti-freeze, you will smell a sweet smell coming from tailpipe. good-day ! most of the costs today are labor which is very expensive.
