Alright...I was testing my car last night after my friend and I swaped my slave cylinder...and while I was doin a 4th gear pull on the freeway at about 120...it just died out. No CEL...no oil light...nothing. Slow down and try starting it again...the starter just cranks and there are little putts out the exhaust. The motor doesn't even shake. Tried push starting...nothing. Check the timing belt...fine. Check the spark plug wires...fine. Check the rotor...fine. Still gettin fuel. Checked number 1, 2, and 3 spark plugs...no oil. Checked the dipstick...no contamination. Checked all my connections...nothing loose. We re-spliced the wires for my MAF sensor on the ECU harness to un-bypass the MAF...didn't help. We are at a loss for what it could be.

It's a D16Z6 w/ a custom turbo kit.

 

My SOL did the same thing, but after while it did start..
what is a "dizzy"? this might help me too

 

dizzy = distributor

you could check the ignitor, my integra did that and after replacing the coil thats what it turned out to be.

 

Sounds like the Ignition Control Module

Get one from any Honda Distributor that has the same number of male ends on the ICM and give it a shot.

 

Damn...I had a spare Dizzy...but my friend is borrowing it.

I'll see if it's that. Any way of checking it without getting a whole new dizzy?

 

Would I still get spark if my ICM is out?

 

Yea man mine did the same thing. Just randomly died. Im sure its in the distributor.

 

Switched dizzys...no change

Any other ideas?...goin to do a compression test later tonight...see if that tells anything. My friend thinks it might be a spun bearing...anyone agree with this?

 

you wont get a spark if its the ignitor, could be the main relay too. are you 100% sure you are gettin spark and fuel?

 

cylinder# 4 closer to the distributor the spark plug electrode part where it sparks ......its a closed gap now....can't even put a piece of paper through that and has a little metal shaving baked on it....

i am assuming i cracked my ringland....


any suggestion guys.......

 

The pictures say it all.
Pulled from Cylinder #4.

 

hm yea that doesnt look good to me, is the angle or is there no gap?
