flipped my civic, wont start
So the other night I rolled my 2000 civic lx and it was upside down for about an hour. I got it towed home, let it sit for a day, pulled all my spark plugs and turned it over a few times to clear my cylinders. Checked all my fluid levels. Cleared out my intake(full of fluids)but it wont start, its turning over, and really sounds like it wants to start but wont. Any ideas?

Spinning out a car can force the engine to turn backwards, which can throw off the timing belt-- either completely strip it or put it a few teeth out of time, either of which will prevent starting--, so you should check that.

Thanks for the advice. I actually poked around more and found out it was a bad ignition coil. costed about $80 for a new one. runs great now, just onto the body work...
