I got a CRX wouldn't start after a bad backfire and a spark wire came loose while driving. I opened up the distributor and found out that the screw holding the rotor fell out. I put everything together and still wouldnt start. I think I might have flooded the engine while trying to start it. The cel is showing 1 because my o2 sensor broke off, which now just have a hole in the header. Any help will be appreciated.

 

try replacing spark plugs. need to get a 02 sensor back on there. or the computer will just keep on pushing more fuel into your engine. causing it to run very rich.

If you have taken out and put your plugs back in at least once...thats your problem. You need to replace the crush washer EVERY time the plugs come out.

I have had this problem with soooo many hondas ........ Always check the crush washer.....This is mostly due to people over-torquing their plugs though....
I work on at least one a week with this problem....People coming in saying they keep popping off the plug wires.......lol

I just got new NGK v-power for it and it still does the same thing. I will try to get a better header because the stupid pacesetter o2 hole is at the traction crossmember and that's why the o2 broke off the first time. I guess I'll be looking for a obd0 b16 exhaust manifold/header.
