today i was picking my friend up from school. of course i turned my car off because i saw no relevance on keeping it on. when he came and we ready to head off, i tried starting my car and it wouldnt turn over. now i've had this problem before but it usually just takes about 5-6 times before it finally turns over and im on my way. one time it didnt start at all and i had to have one of my friends push the car while i jumped it in 2nd gear. anyways, was wondering if anyone has the same trouble i am having now. im thinking it might be a bad ignition switch or my spark plugs are just not team players anymore. any suggestions would be helpful.. thanx..


totally different subject, BUT, when can i become a honda-tech member, this trial user is beginning to bug me and i want out!! i got a cool avatar also..

 

Does the car rev up and then all drop and turn off? if it does i got the same problem but it only seems to be doing it when my cooling fans are running.. hmm weird...

after a certain period of time u become a normal member... just keep posting.

 

nope. dont have the revving problem. it just sometimes doesnt want to start for me. i try it a couple of times and it doesnt work. i wait a good 10 seconds, go at it again and presto! it works. not sure what the problem is. my first guess is spark plugs, havent changed them in a good bit. i dont think its the ingnition switch either.. thanx for ya input tho!.
