96 civic lx, stock, 140k miles, 5 speed.

First sign of trouble was that I pulled into the garage and the cd player spit the cd out and lost all stations. I didn't really think much of it. Later that day it would not turn over, jumped it and all seemed ok.

On the way to auto zone it would not idle so I ended up parking it, pulling the battery, and having them test the battery which tested ok.

The battery reads 12.8v+ and when the car was idling it said 14v+ so I believe the alternator is ok.

I put the car on the charger and it at most said 2.5 amps and barely took a charge. Started it up tonight and it was running great. Drove around 3 miles up to 55mph and got to the stop sign and it idled to nothing and turned off. Started right back and ran fine as long as it was not idling.

Any ideas?

 

Is the CEL ON?

Thank you for the link.

If there is a blue connector it is tucked way up inside. There are several blue connectors plugged into the computer(?) at the bottom but none of them appear to be a 2 pin plug. I might be able to get the car to autozone but it won't be much fun driving it there.

 

The 2P service connector is located above the ECU. It branches from the main wire harness.
