thanks once again w/ troubleshooting help guys. I got everything for my lude finally ready.. today i was planning on taking it out to play with it. anyways i've left it in the garage for 5days without starting and idling it to lube the motor. today it didnt start.

I searched and i found a thread started by a guy w/ similar problem and he fixed it with external coil. I was wondering what else could this be. My battery should still be good since my interior lights/tail lights work. i thought it could be the battery since i had ONE headlight put in and hooked up and left it there (drained battery that way i thought maybe) but then other ligths worked so i ruled it out.

I think there's a spark cuz i hear a click when i turn the key. (alone so i couldn't check myself) and its MSD ignition setup thats not even a year old yet.

So theres 2 possibilities.. the THIRD possibility is probably the stupidest one but I figured it could be it. but it needs spark and fuel to start so i figured it could be gas. Since I haven't finished registration and I dont have insurance on the car I haven't been driving it so I haven't been filling her up. The gas is probably a month maybe 2 months old and its running low. Could this be it?

thanks honda-techers.. this is the last piece b4 i finish up too =/

 

just ebcause your interior lights are working doesnt mean the battery isnt low

 

use a multimeter and check your battery first. if you havent done that, you havent really done anything yet.

 

really.. ill jumpstart it to check later.. dangit batteries are expansive lol

 

Could be worse.

 

charge battery...

 

i love you guys, jumped it and it started right up lol.. accompanied by me finding a vac leak. ill charge it up or just get a new batt in the days to come.

oh and any suggestions for battery? im not looking for the lightest weight one, just the most reliable w/ longest longevity. that stock sucker musta weighed 50-60 pounds
