I know exactly what was said, I read the thread. He seems to know exactly what's wrong, and you keep disputing him even though it's been his job for as long as you've been alive. You don't think there's a good chance he knows more then you and is probably right?

over looked this post?

Blue

No I saw that post, but even after that you posted a bunch of questions regarding electric problems, even though he said it's not an electrical problem, no?

coryallen2

Obviously you don't read all the way through. When workign on cars you don't rule out ANYTHING until you do the trouble shooting. Therefore i posted some simple questions so we could rule out eletrical.

I did read all the way through, I've read every post; it's not a long thread or anything.

I don't really want to argue, my only point was that you shouldn't dispute him so heavily when he's been doing this as his job for quite some time; he probably knows what he's talking about, especially in comparison to a high school student.

coryallen2

Well obviously I also know what im talking about so just chill...

Blue

I'm not getting excited, I'm quite calm. You were fighting with a 15 year vet about how you were probably right, and he's saying no; what should make me assume you know what you're talking about better then him?

Cory is right about not ruling anything out so this is what I reccomend:

1) remove gas cap

2) replace Civic with brand new Civic

3) replace gas cap

In doing this you have ruled out everything but the gas cap

Yeah, this is what I'd do

Thrice

Ill bet your 20 that the gas cap is the problem. All the fuel is leaking out.

Haha thanks for the replies guys. Sorry I wasn't around to respond.

Ok, here's what I've done so far:

-checked fuel pump. It's operating and sending fuel through the filter and other stuff and sending fuel through the line.
-traced the fuel line all the way up to the engine and pulled the hose. Fuel comes out when I switch the car on.
-Checked to make sure the injectors are getting voltage and pulsing when I crank off. They do.

So I'm getting fuel all the way up to the injectors.
I think there may be ignition problems, but I can't figure out what. It can't be that all the spark plugs just up and broke all at the same time.

btw, none of my idiot lights stay on past the normal light up procedure when cranking off. The only one that remains on is the battery icon, obviously, since I'm using the battery to crank off.
