I am new to hondas in general and I just bought this car awhile ago as a daily driver

Its a 90 lx sedan auto


I was driving and the car just died and wont start. It cranks and almost turns over but it wont start. This was a few hours ago and it is to dark to do anything tonight. But I plan to go back in the morning. Any ideas what the problem could be?

 

You need 3 things, fuel, timing and spark. I know your timing is fine if the car was running before. I would think your fuel would be fine. So that leads me to believe something is wrong with your spark. Unless if all your spark plugs went bad at the same time, I would say it is something in your distributor. Probably the coil in the distributor.

 

^ Yup distributor. I :heart: LX's, good luck

 

hmm coil is inside the distributer? Like I said I am new to hondas. I have mostly worked with toyotas that have the coil seperate from the distributer. Is the coil part of the distributer itself so the entire thing needs to be changed? or just a replacaple part under the cap or something?
