I went to the body shop to go pick up me EG hatch [si] and it wouldnt start.
There is no CEL. All it is doing is turning over fine but it just wont hook up and start.It started twice but both 2 times it went to like 1000 rpms and bogged down.
someone please help me

[notes]
my eg wont start-iam getting spark-and iam getting fuel pressure

 

timing might be off. turn the dist either way while having someone crank it. plus check also if you flooded it.

 

Maybe it's flooded. Try holding the gas pedal to the floor to start it.

 

Got fuel ?

Try spraying starter fluid into the intake . This stuff really works.

 

I have a 1/2 tank of gas.
This morning it started up no problem...
BUT there is no way that its fixed..i need this bs fixed.
How could i of flooded it??
Timing could cause this??? If so i think shawn when he put my dizzy on he advanced it a <u>little</u>.
Thanks again guys

 

check the ground on the thermostat housing and tranny. How did you conclude that you are getting spark and fuel?

Check timing belt tension.

 

Do a compression test and let us know the compression results.

Sounds like compression is leaking somewhere.

It kind of just happens every once in a while. A bad distributor cap is the usual cause. (If there is a cause.)

 

i have been having a similar problem. it's very inconsistant. When it happens my car will turn over, hook up but then slowly bog out... very much a spudder. there is no response to me pushing the gas when it does this. I wait a couple minutes, try again and then wallah... starts right up. Took me three attempts the othe morning, thats the most so far. I do have a small oil leak and had though about it being a compression leak, but my oil leak is from the cam seal... any poosibility?? Otherwise im thinking it may be the plugs i have in, they were purchased by Area51 to be sold as their one before they closed... what's different about them is that they have no resistor (i believe thats what the arched part is called). Maybe they have had it, being that i hear they foul out pretty quick??
Anyone have any other thoughts?

I thought you werent going to post in our useless forum anymore? huh? Why dont you go to one of your other forums? Why are you coming here for help when you are trying to flame everybody? j/k....a little.

it could b/c your guy shawn might of advanced the timing a little. or a lot. advancing timing will make car harder to start, retarding will make it easier to start. lkm how it goes....n00b

check your main relay (PGM-FI relay) honda's are know for this problem. The problem occurs more on hot wheathers. A quick way to check this by performing a voltage drop test on power side on fuel circuit of the relay. Once you on the vehicle with engine off, volt drop from battery voltage to .4 volts within 2 seconds. If the motor fire's up and voltage reading is above .5 to 8.0 volts. The most likely cause is bad contact points inside the relay its self..

I have similiar problem. Just put b16 in crx. Car will turn over forever but willl not hook-up. I Took the spark plugs out to check for spark. Only gets a single spark when the key is first turned on and off. but nothin between, Same problem? Compression? timing?

Your problem sounds different to me. if you have a timing light hook it up to number one and crack the car. if there is spark occurring, the timing light should blink for ever time the one fire's. this way you'll know if spark is occurring. if there is spark check for fuel. On the fuel filter there is a 10mm bolt - remove it and turn the key on, engine off and fuel should come out. But recheck your wiring, I have gotten engine swaps that other shops have done where wiring was not done correctly.

sounds like you have a bad fuel pump or a clogged fuel filter ... but i would say your pump is dieing

 

****UPDATE****
Today i went to pickup my check from arbys and came out and my ******* car did the same thing except this time...

when it turned over it would turn for a second then when i fire it up i could give it gas up to 3,000 rpms and it dies automatically and then i would start it up and the car would shake and then die...if i cant get this **** fixed i am going to haft to get rid of it...i need something that is realible and not haft to ******* worry if it will start. I need help what could this be.....

 

ttt bump
