help please, car no go...
ok so today my wife was driving her car to work
91 civic sedan lx dual point motor manual tranny everything stock she pulled up to a light and the car died. it hasn't started since 7am when she left the house. here is what we know the car cranks like it wants to start, but sounds it would if you removed gas or spark from the engine. the cranking is strong and it even sounds like it's gonna start sometimes. i have not checked the compression with a tester, but i did put my hand over the spark plug tubes without the plugs in and all 4 have compression. spark is there (all 4 plugs firing, even put new plugs in) fuel is there, pump working and fuel line squirts when taken off. main relay is good battery is good and still had charge when car died starter is cranking car over like normal timing belt is still on alternator is good (had checked at vatozone and kragen) no cel all fuses are good dizzy is only 3 months old, but spark is good. |
Re: help please, car no go...
oh, but the alternator does have a mitsubishi emblem on it?????
could this be the problem. the guy is testing the alternator as a honda not a mitsu, so it's showing up good? , but wouldn't the car still start with a dead alternator? |
Re: help please, car no go...
Jumped timing?

Re: help please, car no go...
i didn't even check the timing belt for that. good call, but it died when she was coming up to stoplight. like as soon as she stopped it died.
and i know it had enough compression to blow my hand off of the valve cover |
Re: help please, car no go...
timing is dead on.
i just looked down the throttle body and there seems to be a puddle of gas in the intake manifold. i had my wife start it while i held the throttle open and i could see a bunch of fuel flying down the intake. |
Re: help please, car no go...
oh i unpluged the map sensor and it didn't start... duh, but there was no cel for missing map sensor
|
Re: help please, car no go...
could the ecu be bad, maybe that is why there is no cel when i tried unplugging the map sensor

Jon tries to cover it up with lesbians making out in his avatar, but we all know he has a pedobear shrine in his closet, right next to the skins of the young girls he's tattooed his favorite 4chan memes to. Don't let those lesbians fool you, Mike. |
