engine shut down
I changed my distributor and wires when I swapped motors in my 96 civic and the car ran ok for a few days, but two days ago i felt a loss of power and then it picked back up. Today when I was driving, the car just loss power and shut off. I checked for spark in the wires, but got none from any of the wires. I found a few blown fuses, but only the SRS fuse, condensor fan fuse, and the cigarette lighter. The new spark wires did not fit snug on the distributor like the factory wires which i thought was weird. Can someone help!! Do you think I have a faulty distributor or what?
changed the distributor an wires and still no spark. When I turn the key on, I hear a loud buzz as the fuel pump is getting ready, but after I tried to crank the car I loosened the fuel line and no fuel sprayed out. Do you think its the pump or main relay?
You have no spark; don't worry about fuel yet.
Check that the cam rotates when you crank, you can do this by taking the oil cap off and watching the rocker arms. Check that power is reaching the distributor on the black and yellow wire. Check that the ground wires from the battery and the small ground wires on the thermostat housing are secure.
