So a few days ago i was sitting at dunkin doughnuts and was showing someone my ValveCover paint job when i decided to put one of the Spark Plug boots out. I pull it out and the thing is covered in OIL. Quickly put it back in and refire the car, everything is ok.

Today I'm on my way down Route 80 toward Lodi NJ. Everything is alright until some guy in a BMW cuts me off then slams on the brakes. Little did i know when i got into another lane there was a shredded tire flying down the road.

I nail the gas and try to avoid it but end up smacking it with the right front. The car dies and the CEL comes on. I try to refire and make my way toward the shoulder. Open the hood and check all the wire that i can see, everything appears alright but still won't fire.

So my questions to Honda-Tech are, did i do something really serious here?
and what could the problem(s) be?

 

well the oil on the spark plug boot sounds like when you painted your valve cover you installed the valve cover gasket grommets on improperly. This will not cause your car not to start.... maybe run like **** but shouldn't cause it not to start. But what i would do now in your situation is find out what code your car is throwing and then get back to us.

 

i checked teh ECU and even disconnected the battery to reset the ECU.
THe thing isn't blinking at all.
i think thats a problem

 

I would check fuses.

 

well as of right now the car is sitting at the repair shop i was on my way to get my axles done at. The mech says it sounds like something electrical.
Hopefully i get my baby back tomorrow

i think its time i started looking for a backup car. . .

 

Sounds like all your problems are unrelated to each other.

 

ok so i was told what the problem is
the distributor is bad
how in the hell could that happen
i just bought the damn thing 6 months ago

ugh, my luck sucks

 

With out reading much it should be the main fuse check ground and what else dose it do does it click or what. Try push starting it or some ****.

turns out that when i hit the tread it went up and destroyed the dizzy.
Literally destroyed everything inside cap
So the mech ordered one for me from PA
