Default Honda Civic Down!

Hey guys,

I drive a 1998 Honda Civic EJ6 DX with a B16A engine swap. Right now the car has been cranking constantly and I can’t find what’s wrong with it. So far I replaced the spark plugs, fuel injectors, ignition wires, alternator, distributor, water pump, cam seals, timing belt, and a serpentine belt. Compression is at 180 for all pistons and all of the spark plugs work. No leaks seem to appear too.

Anything will help.

Check if you're timing belt is off. Also if distributor is put on right. If its 180° off it wont start. Or if rotor came loose. Had that happen to my honda while driving. First thing you may want to do is check timing belt then for fuel and spark. If you crank it a bunch and you smell fuel and spark plugs have fuel on them you are good with that. If not its probably a bad fuel pump or relay. Just check one thing at a time. Good luck.
