I went to the gas station to put air in my tires for the rims I just got... so Im driving back and my car starts to I guess bog a bit its starts idling really low....and when I pressed the gas it would like kinda jump a little I guess... it felt like a person that didnt know how to drive stick was driving it was.. you know the jerking motion.. ok well I pulled over on this street and i turned my raido down... it starts idling reallly loow like dying baslically around 300rpm...maybe a bit less... then it died tried restarting idled low then died... so its sitting there right now... I need to know if its the battery or the starter or what could it be....

thanx guys

Sounds like one of 2 common problems.
Main Relay , or your Dizzy took a shat.
I'd start by checking for the 2 second "brrrrrrr" sound of the pump when you turn the key over. If you hear that then next check for spark.
Hope this helps.


Peace,

any smoke? although not in a honda, i had a similar thing happen when my head gasket went. real low idle and stalled out if i didn't keep my foot on the gas at lights.

I don't know that this could be what it is but does anyone think that it could be the charcoal canister for the vaccum system. Maybe its clogged really bad or broken or something. Just an idea. Tell me if I'm wrong because I'm still tryin to learn a thing or two about cars.

^ probably not that

my guess is distributor..... which is tough to diagnose sometimes. take it off, see that it spins smoothly, and supposedly autozone (or whoever) can test your coil & igniter but i'm not sure i trust their judgment on stuff like that
