check for spark and fuel.
check your main relay.

check your battery to see if it's clean and in working order, your spark plugs, check the starter, alternator, check your fuses, see if you're getting fuel, pressure, check for loose connections I dunno man check check check..

I'd lean towards main relay as well, and for future reference; if it cranks, it turns over, but won't fire. crank and turn over mean the same thing, it means the crankshaft and pistons are rotating, but there's no combustion to continue the process.Comment

ok well u no what i meant. it cranks hard, and fast so i dont think its the battery, .......... umm wheres my main reley,?

main relay is behind the dash, above your fuse panel.

if you have good spark and proper fuel pressure then you should be able to fire your motor.Originally posted by 91accorddxbuds View Post
try starting it up again and see if it runs.
if it does and it dies again then you can pretty much bet that its an igniter or very fouled plugs.
when our igniters break they tend to stop working once they get hot.
its common to stall at weird times and start back up again after a few minutes when they begin to crap out. sometimes being able to drive as normal and sometimes stalling again soon after.
they arent cheap if you buy one new.
hit up the junkyard and see if you can find one there. most of the time a honda isnt in the yard for a blown igniter.
i dont condone any criminal activity, but junkyards can afford to "misplace" parts like this from time to time. along with MAP and knock sensors and the like.

hah yah im totally down for misplaceing""" a part lol
but yah then it cant be the ignighter, because i waited til the engine and everything was well cooled down, and tryed it multiple times, and it just cranks and cranks but no start, even after cooled....Comment

it could still be your igniter. it could be so far gone that it wont start the car again.Originally posted by 91accorddxbuds View Post
always good to have a spare around anyway.
