So I have a 98 civic coupe dx model

New parts I have installed within the last week

Distributor
spark plugs & wires
battery
checked all fuses and main relay
checked Ecu
and crankshaft position sensor

now what had happened was is my car overheated on the highway and it completely died on the off ramp now my battery was very bad to the point where I had to jump my car from another battery when my car died completely on the off ramp of the highway it was smoking out of the engine I had it towed to a tow place and tried to start it up it started up but it was running very rough and shaking the whole front of the car that's when I found out the crankshaft position sensor was bad I took the car to my house and changed all the parts that I have listed out there the head gasket and timing belt and water pump were done a month and a half ago and the reason my car overheated was because my water pump was leaking


now my car cranks over and does not start I have spark and I have fuel I don't know what is wrong and I need help

 

Read the rules sticky. Your thread title needs help.

Also...I'm not reading that awful mess. Some punctuation, even if incorrect is better than none.

Also line spacing like my post is very helpful.

Please try again

 

So how should I make it im not gonna type all of that im using a voice to type m

 

I edited your thread title.

Check the mechanical timing. If fine, then compression test the cylinders.

 

I summed it so it's easier to read

 

Ok what if both those thing are good then what would I be looking at is there any other sensors

 

Also verify that the spark plug wires are installed in the correct firing order on the distributor cap.

Any CEL codes?

 

Wires are In the right order and I took all plugs out and grounded them and they all fire

I have a video if you want to see

I even tried starting it with starter fluid

No luck smh

 

Much better

 

This sounds to me like timing as Ron suggested or mechanical damage.

You need to check the timing as suggested

 

Is spark bright white at all 4 plugs? If so, recheck the the mechanical timing and compression test the cylinders.

 

They all spark I will check YouTube to see if they are sparking bright enough tommarro I will check timing I dont have a compression tester is there eny way to find that out

 

I think you can rent (free) one from AutoZone.

 

I will check thank you I will post results asap

 

Ok checked the timing belt and everything is on timing I changed the crankshaft position sensor because wire was melted and still nothing

 

As said before.

Check if the spark is bright white and not dull orange

Compression test engine
