Car won't start HELP

[Captain-Obvious™]

Have a boosted b16 in a 92 civic si...

been driving fine...then last wednesday it started to not wanna start up.

I would crank on it a few times and it would normally start.

but today it just won't start. I replaced the main relay...still won't start

RECAP: car turns over...and was driving fine yesterday...today the car won't start and i tnever made any weird noices or anythng....just parked it...let it cool down and turned it off....now it won't start...replaced main relay and that's not it.

UPDATE:

checked spark and it seems I have none...took out a plug and turned the motor over and it didn't arc...so I'm guessing no spark...so this means bad dizzy???

check your coil pack, ignitor, rotor button, dizzt cap.

quick fix is to borrow a friends dist that is known working dist. if it doesn't work in your car it could be ecu or wiring...assuming you have stock ignition.

I got stock ignition...do ECUs just go bad like that?

[scttydb411]

not usually, but they can. it's usually fuel pump/main relay circuits that go out. you are dealing with 15 y/o electronics.

try a dist first...hopefully that cures it.

My Del Sol did something very similar. Mine was the ignition coil inside of the distributor. Back then it was cheaper to replace the whole distributor from Autozone for like $250.00. Lifetime Warranty. Did you notice any oil around or underneath the distributor or on the engine block? That is usally a sign that is is going to go out in due time.

come to think of it I think there is oil leaking down the head from about the dizzy area... oh well I'll get back to it tomorrow

Could just be your coil. One way to check is to take the dizzy apart and take the heat sheild/cover off the coil. If it is burnt up then most likely that's the problem.
