    My civic won't start. I can hear the fuel pump. The engine turns over
    but it is not firing. It worked find before I replaced the alternator.
    It even worked without the alternator as long as the battery was
    charged. Where should I start?

    Not sure right now how a possibly improperly installed
    alternator would work into this, but finding out things like
    whether there's even spark should help. Start here:

    check all the fuses .. must have burnt the ign fuse or something
