hey everyone, i recently rear ended someone and i got the whole car fixed, i think the car didnt start after i crashed due to the fuel cut off? am i right?!?! haha well i needed a new bumper, a new front fender, hood, windshield, and both airbags. i got everything fixed professionally but the car still wont start, do i need to get a new fuel cut off sensor or what?
im making this ad because i just got a call from the body shop that the car is done but still doesnt start. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME NOW. i need to get my car back haha

Does the starter crank the engine but it won't start? If so, does the fuel pump prime? Is there spark at all four plugs?

Listen for whether the fuel pump primes when the key is turned to ON(II).

Click the spark link in my signature.

Basically you turn the key the key to number 2 and listen for a click noise under the glove box area.

I don't understand typically body shops repair cars like engine problems, rad problems, etc, they don't have a mechanic on site?

ok ill try those things, and no idky but they dont. im going to call a tune shop called racing results which is right by the shop to see if they know what to do

Most of the body shops tht i have worked in, dont usually have mechanic on hand. They usually send the car off to a mechanic shop afterward.

hey guys, ok the mechanics got up to figuring out that the car doesnt have any spark, what could it be now?

Former User

What car?

Do your mechanics need help with the troubleshooting or do you plan to do the work?

xxvinxx43

nah its just that they got the car much later in the day right before they closed so they only got up to there haha, and its a 96 civic ex with a b16a2 form a 2000 civic si, and no im not doing the work
