Exclamation 1999 Ex Crank No Start

Just a quick question. It is a 1999 Honda Civic Ex with an Automatic trans. I have a crank no start. Should my RPM gauge be working while it is cranking over? Things I have checked so far- all fuses, fuel pump is turning on and
working, timing belt is not broken, battery voltage is good.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Does it have compression?
Is there fuel?
Are the spark plugs soaking wet?
Is it flooded?

Re: 1999 Ex Crank No Start

I am having the same issue as well. Mine will start but when I et it sit to warm up it will die when I press on the gas. I live in Indiana so the temps are pretty low here. I checked the main relay and did a swap but no fix, spark plugs are in the normal range of wear and they are NGK brand, I here the fuel pump run but may need to take further investigation on pressure, plug wires are not damaged, battery is good, and I am a little puzzled. If I start and let it run I can drive it immediately without it struggling before it warms up to normal operation temperature but once I turn it off it will crank but no start. Waiting for a good warm day to get out into the garage and dissect this engine to further investigate the nuisance. Leaning toward a bad fuel pump because it could have bad pressure as in causing hard start due vapors

That's not describing a fuel pump issue.
You could check fuel pressure and rule that out pretty easy.


What car is this you have now?
(You have posted in the past about some non-original combination of engine-head-ECM)

Got codes?
Got scanner?
Got coolant temp sensor accuracy?
