i have a 96 honda civic ex and it has 95 thousand miles and i was getting onto 101 freeway and when i accelerated my car, it died. i pulled over to the right hand side of the road and i tried to start my car again, but it wouldn't start. it would make a rumrum noise but it wouldn't turn over. so i had it towed to the local mechanic and he said that he would run tests on it but he isnt sure what is wrong with it--- any ideas???
thanks

 

Give us some more info. Is it all stock? any mods on your car? 5 speed, auto?

 

no mods bone stock. daily driver

 

its an automatic

 

distributor(sp?) broken?
when was the last time you have replace your cap and rotor?
i think is the cap and rotor, they are old and used up and need to be replace, change the spark plugs and wires as well if you haven't do so in a long time.

last time my sister car did the same thing when i was on the freeway it just dies out and it crank but it won't starts. And that's my problem.
