here is the deal. i have an 89 crx with an 89 si motor i went out to my car this morning to go to school and it wouldnt start. when i turn the key the car trys to turn over but it doesnt start let me know what you guys think.
im not sure what it is but i think its the starter b/c it has been starting to take longer to start but it would eventualy start. but today it wouldnt so let me know what you think.

 

battery,or check the battery term,and all of the connections something might be loose

 

does the engine turn over?
harder to start- i would look at fuel pump - or relay -

 

it starts to loose power the longer that you try to turn the key. and yes it does try to turn over.

 

hard wire the starter to the + terminal of the battery, if it turns, its not your starter (for 10 years, I've yet to see a Honda starter to go bad, other than GM starters on the Honda ACCORD V^)

tried to listen for the fuel pump to start, if you dno't hear it, it could be your main relay (very popluar part to go bad)part#39400-SH3-003.

if not, a good chance your dist. parts may went bad, i.e., an igniter and the coil.
at the point, you need to diagnois the car.

again, it could be simlpe........or your alarm took a crap and it won't let you start the car. very common, especially if its been half ass before.

g-luck

 

yea alarm was put in by former only so it probally was done bad b/c my battery drains when the car is off. so i have had to take the neg off the battery whenever im not driving.

 

i got home and it drove fine i didnt even do nething, but this morning it did the same thing it seems to only happen in the morning??????? and advice??plzzz

 

have your battery load tested! figure out what you drian is on you battery , ie alarm, have you alt tested (autozone or advance does this for free)

 

thanx will check autozone.

 

Yea, without reading the other posts, it seems as if you are not getting fuel to your engine, or are getting very little.
