94 civic dx starting problem
94 civic dx starting problem
ok so i have a 94 civic dx coupe, 5-speed. No extra's added on that i know of. (all stock, no cd,subs,amp etc).
Bought it and it ran and drove good. Parked it a few weeks ago and drove it work about a week and a half ago, everything was fine.
Went to start it about 4 days ago and the lights came on and nothing else. Well I jumped the battery and it started right away. Let it run for about 15-20 mins while i drove it around to let the battery charge. Turned it off to see if it was charged. Did the same thing and needed jumped again. Does this sound like a bad battery? loose battery cable?
When I drive and flip the headlights on the lights flicker/rpm surge and such and it acts like it might die for a second. Is the battery just really bad?

Re: 94 civic dx starting problem
Sounds like the alternator to me though check the battery to. Make sure the terminals are on the battery good and tight and make sure the ground is good. Check the battery fluid level. If all is good then its your alternator.
