Gday guys i greet your from ozzy land lol

I have a lil bit of a issue with my accord the other day i just left my drive way and start my trip to work and my car suddenly made a weird whirling noise then lost power and eventually died.

Now i am mechanicly minded so first things first i checked the plugs and found oil in the sparkplug wells so i cleaned them out and resealed it no big problem .

I then placed everything back together tryed to fire it and got nothing so i pull off a lead and place a spare plug in there and try to see if we have any spark .

I got nothing so i pulled the dizzy cap and and the points in the cap had black crap on them as did the rotor button now i didnt have time to get a new cap and button so i just got some low grit sandpaper and sannded the **** of and i still have nothing

i was just wondering if anyone else has had these problems ?
And whats the easyest way find the problem

Should i replace the dizzy cap and rotor button and see if they work?

i know its geting fuel as i turned the engine over without the plug and the injectors are still pulseing

 

vtec or non vtec accord??

 

non vtech

 

Anyone got any idea im out of ideas atm and would like some fresh ones lol

 

Had a similar problem, spark plugs were soaked with oil from a leaky valve cover gasket, cleaned everything and it still didnt start, plugs looked bad after i cleaned them so i bought 4 new plugs, fired right up.

 

id suggest its your coil. check with an ohm meter first before buying parts. i believe its pins 2 and 4 on the harness and of course the wire going to the dizzy.

 

ok i will check the coil . But i know the dizzy has power as everything it working as i took the cap off and the rotor button spins

i will get new plugs anyway and iw ill try the harness going to the dizzy plus get a new coil lol
