i have 1995 honda civic with a 1.5 sohc and my friend wrecked it and sold it to me cheap so bought it and trailered it home and it cranked up fine and drove just wrecked, but i moved under my carport and took the valve cover off to check a noise coming from the engine somewhere and put everything back on right, well next day went to move it again and it will turn over but not crank, it's getting fuel but no spark. i have no idea what to do, what to replace or check. please tell me what to check or do, thanks very much.

 

do a search on......car wont start....alot of things will come up and ill know you will prolly find a answer in one of those cause i had the same problem but i had spark so it didnt help me much but i know it was talked about alot.

 

thanks for the reply, i'll try that

 

If you have no spark at any of the plugs, then you probably have a bad coil or igniter unit in the distributor. First make sure that, when you removed the valve cover, you didn't inadvertently disconnect the distributor connectors as this would also cause a no spark problem.
