Default car wont start after getting ditched

Hi there! We just got ditched because of an icy road, when we tried to start the car, it won't start but it has its power on with sounds lights and everything however, there are a lot of snow inside the car's engine. Just wondering what could've been the cause of why our car won't start. By the way,our car is 2002 honda cr-v with manual transmission.

You're in the wrong forum.

Spinning out in a manual car can force the engine to turn backwards, which may mess up the timing belt.

Huge jolt when you flew in the ditch

- confirm your fuel pump is humming when the key is on ignition 2

- confirm that your distributor is spinning when you attempt to crank

- confirm your starter is trying to crank the engine

- confirm your timing is correct

- confirm your ecu is getting power

- confirm your injectors are pulsing
