Ok, so yesterday I was waiting in line at the car wash, and I was idleing for about 5 minutes, and suddenly, out of no where my car just stalled. I tried to start it up, and it would crank all day long, but not turn over. The same was true after waiting a bit. I replaced the cap, and rotor, my battery is not dead, it will not push start, everything is grounded properly, and I can hear the fuel pump turn on. Any ideas?

 

did you check the timing belt

 

Sounds like one of 2 things. First are you getting spark? if not replace your ignitor. If so check your timing belt. How many miles are on the motor? I would check for spark and fuel first.

 

If it was the timing belt, the car wouldn't even crank... would it? Plus that was just replaced 10k miles ago.

Update: I just replaced the coil... no go. I am getting no spark, I am getting fuel. It has 105k miles on it.

I had the same problem. if you replaced the coil and its still not starting take off your distributor and replace the ignitor. if that still doesnt work check the timing belt to see if its slipped or jumped a tooth. if it sliped it more than likely knocked your cam timing out of wack.

 

OK, where can I get an ingnitor? Other than Honda.

 

I can get you on but they are kinda spendy. Im me and we can talk
