No spark 92 Civic
Used to have problems starting car, but it would always start later or next day. Changed plugs, distributer cap, etc. and is not starting at all anymore--but sounds like it used to when it wasn't starting. This is the first time I haven't been able to get it going. It's not the main relay or ignitor but the problem is that there's no spark. I am running out of things to test and check. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!
This is from the Haynes manual for the 92-95 Civic on your plugs being oily.
Symtoms: Oily coating caused by poor oil control. Oil is leaking past worn valve guides or pistons rings into the combustion chamber. Causes hard starting, misfiring and hesitation.
I had the same problem with my 95 wich had no spark but of all the things is wasent getting any fuel and the fuel filter was cloged and i replaced that and BAM its firing and starting right up, we had change the plugs and wires the distributor and even change the battery and put new cables on before i checked the fuel filter. So this may not be any help but the symtoms you say are the same mine had when i bought it a few weeks ago.
