1993 Honda Civic Question: Starting Problems

 

Question

Visitor, 1.5L 4 Cylinder, Melbourne, FL, February 27, 2011, 08:37

I have a 93 Honda civic DX 1.5l. It starts fine when cold, will not start when warm. I have replaced the coil pack and the O2 sensor. Checked the plugs, they are clean and dry.

    I believe these vehicles have potential issues with the distributors. Have a diagnosis performed to see if spark or fuel is missing. If you're missing spark...this would be on the right track.

    Turned out to be a computer issue. $550 over the counter; $20 at the junk yard. Thanks for your input.
