Default Help...... My car just died from out of nowhere

Ok,

This totally boggles my mind. I was on my way to drop my lil sis off to work. I started up the car and saw my gas guage was tellin me my gas was close to empty. I drove off down the hill and I turned left around the corner and all of a sudden it just gave out like a old man without his viagra. I had to run my **** back up to get my jumper and what lil gas I had in the gas can. When I got back to my car I put more gas in and I tried starting the the car.

I tried at least 2 times and it was a no go. I went to jumpstart it and that didnt even work. Now if luck would have it, my neighbor friend was home. I told him what happened. I had an idea of swapping out his battery for mine just to see if it was my battery was bad. Well, I tried starting up the car with his battery and its still didn't want to start. Now, I asked myslef , could it be the starter is broken or the diffuser box is bad. It has to be some electrical.

So, exactly what happened when you went to start your car? Did it turn over or just nothing at all? If it turned over and didnt start, and you said your gas gauge was close to low, uhhhhhh....... maybe you ran out of gas? More information will be helpful in finding out what the hell went wrong with your car. The type of car and what you have done to it might help us also. Good luck!

I have a 94 Eg w/ 94 JDM B16. I said nothing happened when I went to start it back up when it died. And no I did not ran out of gas. I havent done anything to it as you put it.

check spark? Can you hear your fuel pump priming(spl?) when you turn the key on?

yea... dont believe MY car came with one, hope you didn't pay too much for it LOL! One of those JDM mods from EBAY most likely...

As for the car, you could have starved the fuel pump and fried it while goin down that hill. I dont know if Honda's are susceptible to that, but I know a couple of domestics that have fried the pump running out of gas... Make sure its priming.
