I got a 95 honda civic whit a jdm d15b 1.5L SOHC Vtec engine but it wont start. When I turn the ignition switch to on the CEL light lights up for 2 seconds then it goes off till there everything is fine but when I start the engine it keeps on rotating but wont start, and when I stop I hear a continuous beep coming from the engine. Any help pls.

Thanks in advance.

- Sat Oct 18, 2008 12:57 pm #74810 I dont know if thats the problem cause I can smell fuel on my plugs. I was checking the plugs cable but there is no spark at all.

- Sat Oct 18, 2008 2:24 pm #74828 Check your grounds, check your timing, check to see if your dizzy is fucked, check to see if your vacuum lines are correct, theres 2 sensors that are exactly the same, if you crossed them it wont fire at all?

- Sat Oct 18, 2008 5:29 pm #74857 sry for my stupid question the dizzy=distributor if yes could it be that it lost timing by its own. Something that I didn't mention before is that before the engine stopped working the car was acting strange while changing gears the car was only reving 2000 to 4000 and a lot of strange noise was coming out of the silencer it was like something was stack in the induction system and the engine couldn't breath good air. May be it was happening because it was loosing spark? but then we checked the plugs and they weren't good at all after I ve put them back so that I could park it in the garage the engine stopped working ( and we had to push it all the way ). Hope that I can have more help on this.

I have an indicator on my dash that it seems to indicate that the is something wrong with the cat but I dont have the owners manual this is the indicator: http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/5058 ... jc8.th.jpg
