Car won't start

[EsperHamid]

Right, i only needed to bleed the line cuz it wasnt starting, so i figured since i drained the tank, that the bad gas was still in the fuel line, so i loosened the bolt on top of the banjo bolt, turned the key on a bunch of times to let the old gas squirt out , then tightened it and it started

After reading all the things youve done, i thinks its definately the coil, or a fuse in the fuse box ( theres one under the hood, and one next to the brake pedal)

the Dizzy's rotor turns when I try to start the car, wouldn't that mean that the fuses are fine ?! ... I checked the ECU 10 AMPS fuse and it seems Okay .. haven't checked the one near the brake pedal ..... most probably it's the coil as u said.

note: do you have page 16-71 ?

Wether your distributor spins or not has nothing to do with the fuses, the distributor is physically connected to the end of the camshaft.

If you have a bad fuse , that could explain why youre not getting spark.

When i went to autozone to have my icm tested, they had a big book with the resistance values for the coil, i bet if you took your coil in , they could test it.

Where do you live? I would like to help in person if we lived near each other


I looked and i dont have that page sorry

Looks like you have the same guide I have .. well no where I live we don't have autozone. Do you know which fuse might be burned ?! what's its number but I highly doubt it. it's better for me to do the test first and post my result .... I will revert to a car electrician as a last resort, however I would like to do the test myself, because where I live electricians are naughty ,,, they fix something and they screw something else and their work or let's say car handling isn't very professional

well call all the auto parts stores you can find and ask them if they can test a coil, or just get a multimeter ( borrow )

i dont have a specific fuse in mind, just check them all

you probly have this page, but here it is anyway






and by the way, where do you live?

Did you pull the plug wire off while it was running? If so then that could have damaged either the coil or ignition control module. I suggest you find a helms or honda service manual and check the coil and ICM with a multimeter , i am actually going to take my ICM ( also called igniter) to autozone tomorrow , i called and they said they can check it. Another option is search all my posts by my username to see the problems ive been dealing with


If you are familiar with downloading torrents, you can find the shop manual for the 90 - 93 accord, but just know that 90 and 91s have internal coil, and 92 and 93s have an external coil, but i think both have internal ICM. if you remove the ICM (to have it tested) push VERY hard on the philips screwdriver to avoid rounding out the screws

In the manual i used to test my coil, it said if the plug wire resistance is more than 25000 ohms, that they need to be replaced

Best answer right there this guy knows what he is talking about ignore the rest they just wasting time with their lack of automotivve knowledge.

He is correct, pulling the wire out while the car is running can cause current to arc back into the coil an burn the secondary windings. I've seen this problem quiet a few times. Replace coil or dizzy, test it first using the info from the op.
