Re: broke down si

though i'm new to hondas(had a subaru and a mitsubishi), it sounds like you have a more serious problem than just plugs and wires...

just my opinion

open the oil fill cap and have a buddy turn the key as to start the car..look in the valve cover with a flashlight and see if the valves are moving.. if they arent then you broke the timing belt and bent the valves if they are moving then you have a different problem....

you say that you have fuel but do you have spark take a plug out and test for spark
