2005 Honda Civic LX Cranks but wont start?
I have a 2005 Honda Civic LX model automatic. I was driving it one day and it wouldnt let me pass 4000 RPM then when i got home it stalled on me and wouldnt start. It was cranking it's a** off but it just wouldn't start. What could be wrong with it?

Was it noisy when it last ran? Was it low on power?
How many miles on the car?
When was last timing belt job?
Check codes first.
Wait.....Check oil first. Then check for codes.
Then check cam timing first.
Maybe check the fuel gauge first, see if my kid left it with no gas in it.

Yes it was noisy. It was not low on power it would kick up to 4000 rpm pretty fast but wouldn't get passed that. I just did a tune up 2 weeks ago so oil should be fine. It has 125k miles the last diagnostic i took it in for was the same day of the tune up.
