ok i just had 2 walk 12 miles to my house cause this crap.. my car has been running fine till yesterday when it started running like it was missing then when u hit the gas it would bog and die.. it did that a couple of times and then it would start at all.. well we managed 2 get it started and to my friends house n we thought we fixed it.. well wrong. i got almost to my house and it died again. fuel pumps working n im not too sure what it is.. any help would be greatly appreciated
need help really bad i just replaced the raditator bc the bottem blew then my top rad hose blew next day replaced that and thermostat then a rad hose under the injections blew replaced that and now my hoses feel very very hard anyideas ??????
okay, if that jumble of random words im reading above here is accurate.
you replaced the entire radiator and both the lower and upper radiator hoses and one of the smaller hoses that goes into the top on the back of the head?

um whatever the hell thats about.. its a dual point d15b2.. i took the wires out and 2 fell apart.. i replaced those and it started and ran.. about 10 minutes ago i changed the coil and the plugs and still nothing.. theres fuel coming from the filter and fuel getting to the fuel pressure regulator.. so idk

i found this out the hard way last week. car died while i was on the freeway, had to pull over to the shoulder. i thought i burned out the coil or something, when i pulled off the dist. cap the screw was just laying inside, and rotor was spinning freely

lol maybe.. im too tired to mess with it right now..i didnt even see the screw in the dizzy at all n idk where it could be.. one thing i noticed while i was trying to get it running.. when it did run it would idle like its missing.. as soon as u tap the gas its like its being strangled n dies.. but if u lightly tap it repeadetly it struggles to keep running like **** lol
to see the screw your going to have to turn the crank by hand. get a ratchet, extension, and socket to fit the crank pulley bolt. turn the crank till you see the screw(if it's still there). then tighten it.
i have a 92 honda accord this is what i replaced goin from which went first
radiator
top coolant hose - and thermo and cap
then a hose that went out and back in on the motor in the back of the engine close to the top left corner of the valve cover
[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Owner/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg[/IMG]
and now the lower hose i didn't replace is starting to squeeze out coolant from the connection to the thermo
and thats why im starting to think i got a wrong thermo ??
also my hoses are so very hard like they wanna burst is that normal ??? could that be why im leakin out the lower hose now bc its old and weak maybe ???

alright.. tried 2 start again and all it does is turn over.. i disconnected the negative battery terminal and im hearing a noise in both of my doors.. i dont have power anything so im not too sure what that is.. maybe a ground loose or something?
Are you saying that you are having extreme coolant pressure buildup that is blowing connections apart and making hoses very hard? You have a cracked sleeve most likely if that is the case. Does it ever smoke white at startup or smell sweet?
