ok so i was driving shifting around 4 grand and all of a sudden i hear a grinding noise and my rpm's slowly fall back to zero and my car won't start back up, im assuming its my clutch and it finally gave out because of the smell after it happened, does anyone know what i need to get fixed?

 

how many miles you have on the car?..

around 40k, another thing when the incident happened my rpm's wouldn't go up as i pressed on the gas as the rpm's fell all the way to zero

 

similar thing happend to me in my integra one time. turns out it was loose wires on the dizzy


all im saying is check all your wires

 

that could be a possibility, theres just so many options right now, but im just trying to pinpoint the problem, thx for the information

 

Do you have aftermarket intake?

 

yes i do have an aftermarket intake AEM v2, ive gotten feedback as to what the problem might be and wires might be the case, i was also thinking maybe spark plugs or even alternator, does this sound right?

 

when asking questions give all info available.
will it turn over (When you turn the key to start does anything happen?)
These problems are approached as a flow chart. what works-what dont!

 

ok, when the key is turned everything sounds normal, but it doesn't turn over it just keeps trying to, all the lights, alarm, stereo etc... are in perfect working order, the car just won't start

 

ok update, i just tried to jump my car with some cables in hopes that the alternator just needed a little jolt to help it turnover, but that didn't work

 

Not tryin to be a smart *** or anything, but you have gas in the car? Maybe you dont and your fule gauge is actin up.

 

When did you install the AEM V2? because it could be the case that it's loosened..

check here


It happend to a few of my friends, one was an EVO and the other one was S2000..
We run into the similar signs that you mentioned...Hope it helps...wish I could help you more but I'm not a mechanic..

 

thanks to everyone for the advice, it happend to be the wire that was hooked up to the crankshaft, wasn't connected fully so all we needed to do was plug and play...thanks again
