trouble shooting a no start condition
After doing all the initial tests for spark furel and combing threw google and youtube... i hae asking for anyu type of help for anything..so here it is
i have a Acura inttregra 94 LS b18b1 automactic non v-tech 200k miles igot for cheap .
background...........
dd previous owner was obviously new to cars n It had overheating issues. fan dont work radiator leaked hoes had leakdsbutdurring the prodcess of fixing these problems over the course of a few months it seemed as if I solved the overheating condition n suddenly id notice the temp gauge creeping up to the H.. i only drive short trips so id just keep pushing to my destinationn let it cool down b4 driving again... after doing this time n time again, if it wasnt properly cooled en id try to start it it wouldnt want to start. it would turn overr like it wnts tostart n finially catch n id have to quickly react and press the gass to keep the car alive. driving it it would preform sluggish, meaning i press the gasn it felt like driving knee deep in water, **** poor performance unless i pressed the accelerator down down. changed the hose from the block under the lower raditor hoes on the water inlet that connects to the breather pipe and leads to the intake recently and left the bleeder valve open accidently. after reassembling it i test drove it 12 hours later did a lap around my nieghbor hood it gotto running temp held it and suddenly jumped up to the H with loads of steam coming from the hood on my way backto myhouse . imade it home n shut the bleder valve immediatly. let it cool. replaced the coolant. and it never started again.
what uit does now
it. does the same thing turns over but just doeesnt catch. sounds almost as if fuel isnt getting to the engine said my sissters bf but i loosened the gaas line to the fuel rail and gas pressure is building up becuz i seen the gass reles from itsoon asn the bold broke loose and i hear the fuel pump when i turn the key.. i used a test like to check the plug n wire. i jut put brand new plugs and wires not too ong ago.. fuses ar alol good..
my diagnosis..
my final guess today after beating my head against it last 2 days... i think worst case i blew a head caasket...nor im not getting compression some other way.. i hope not. im hoping its just the timing belt or something simpile i overlooked...im going to go bang my head against it m,ore right now n check back.. we all know times it tough so im reluctantn to throw monmey n part at it.. i might give in n take it to a shop..
thank you for reaing..
