2000 EX Will Not Turn Over!
Okay, here is the whole damn story. My wife told me she thought she saw some white/gray smoke coming from the front passenger side of the hood. I took a look and found nothing. But on a gut hunch I turned the car on and let it run for about 20 min when I noticed the smoke. Well it seems the fan stopped working, and that caused the radiator to crack at the top. And the fluid leaked down and burned off on the catch. Well I was going to get it fixed this weekend BUT the car stopped working last night. She told me that the car just stopped running. All the lights are on and there was no smoke, no bang, no thumping, or anything. Just off. The car has not turned over since. Revs and all the gears turn but never turns over.
Ideas? Questions?

Your last sentence confused me. If it doesn't turn over how does it rev? Other than that do you mean the engine is froze or won't turn over with the key? does it crank or is there nothing when you turn the key?
Third my guess is some wiring burned have you checked any wiring or the harness where you saw smoke. The old saying where there is smoke there is fire.

UPDATE
I changed out the rotor, cap, wires, and plugs. Still only cranks. I pulled the wires out and throw a plug in each and not one spark from any of them. WTH is going on?
90 Civic It cranks but will not turn over. The smoke was steam from the antifreeze burning of on the hot motor.
