How did it get off by 4 teeth? What is to prevent that from occuring
again? Has another mechanic rechecked it?

If it's not throwing any codes then it is something that is open
loop, such as a bad ignition coil. Does it really have spark? You've
actually pulled a plug wire and seen that it'll jump 1/4" to ground while
the car is being cranked?

Is the exhaust clear? Gases blowing out the tailpipe?

Fuel pressure? Injectors grounded and receiving a signal (put on an
osciloscope)?

You might have a bad computer. A honda mechanic can try a replacement
without having to charge you if it didn't need to be replaced.
