My 1994 Acura Integra LS broke down today
Right after I finished putting gas in it I went about a half of a block and like that it just stalled. Won't start or turn over. It just isn't getting a spark. I thought maybe it was water in the gas so I put iso-heat in it to get the water out. But that didn't work. I don't know maybe the fuel pump, or ignotion coil. What do you think? Has anything like this happened to anybody else?

Check coil or ignitor, then there's wiring to check if you get that far.
If you didn't really check, then you need to find out whether it's missing spark vs. missing fuel.

I didn't actually test if I was getting a spark. But I figured if the iso-heat didn't work and it still wasn't even trying to start. I did check the ground. So coil switch, or distributor sound like the things I should test for. Thanks.

that would rule out any fuel related problems

Re: (JET_dC4)
same thing happened to my g/f's little sister...
but she was stupid and pumped diesel gas because at the time it was cheaper than regular unleaded and diesel sounds much stronger than premium or super unleaded
girl's math:
diesel + honda civic = powerful car
