ok i have a stock 93 civic dx .... i turned the car off for about five minutes one night got back in it and it wouldnt start...i put a distrubutor,ecu and main relay off a running car on it and i'm still not gettin any spark...any help is apreciated....

 

did you try the plugs and wires????

 

i'm sure u checked all the fuse's right. it could be the main battery fuse but i could be wrong. just check it out, it can't hurt.

 

i double checked all the fuses.. and the plugs and plug wires were both brand new...keep the replys comin please!!!

 

so you had the nospark problem,
THEN you tried changing out the dizzy/ecu/relay?
and it still didnt work?

just for carification...

 

A multimeter would help in this situation greatly. Check where your electrical flow stops. Battery, ECU, dizzy, wires... check all those out and see where you no longer get anything and tell us. Mainly you need to check to see if your dizzy is getting juice.

 

ya i took it all off of a working car...and still no spark....i pulled up to my friends house ...let it idle for about five minutes... shut it off for about 5 minutes and got back in and it wouldnt start....i have no clue what it could be ...

Do you have a multimeter to check the plug at the distributor?

 

bump

 

Check the plug at the dizzy... I'm tellin ya...

 

i will check dizzy plug first thing in the morning.....thanx for all the replys .... any other suggestions will help..

 

ok ... i dont have any power going to the dizzy....so does this mean i need a new engine harness?

 

Well, you need to check to see if it's the engine harness or the ECU. I'm not good with computers, so someone else is gonna have to help you with that one. Once you check out the ECU, you'll be able to see where the break in current is.

BTW, are you throwing any codes?

 

do you have power going to the other stuff in your car, like your stereo, gauges, interior lighting, exterior lighting, etc?

have you checked your battery cables, and the battery itself??

I stopped at a gas station in my nissan stanza,
after driving around all day,
fill up,
go to start it up,
it wont start!! gasp! wtf, it was JUST working,

so i pop the hood, the battery cables are on there.. but I try fiddling with em, they seem alil loose but wont go on much more.. I push em on as good as I can.

then the car comes back to life

 

i have power to everything else...but i put another ecu out of a running car in it and it still wouldnt start...i didnt think that a loose battery connection would make me loose power just to one thing.?

 

you probably have a fried wire somewhere or a short circuit somewhere this happened to me also, also check the distributor insides (ignitor, coil crap) see if your getting power by hooking up a light tester to the black/yellow plug from the engine harness. the plug that hooks up to your distributor


you can also search too, lots of returns from the search just type in "no spark"

 

You guys will never guess what happened the other day my cuz came over and pulled ever fuse out of my car and checked them..found one blown fuse .. tired to start it and it wouldnt he than aske dme if when i put on the dist. if i forced it on or it just went in easly.. i said i dont remeber.. sohe toke it off and put it back on and my car started after weeks and weeks of sitting.. thanx for the repiles and next time i will check everything wery carefully....
