Got fuel?
Does the pump run?
Got water in the tank, or something that is not gasoline?

Got spark?

I sparkplugs fine fuel pump fine gas is in the car, I got it started with start fuel but it only lasted 10 seconds so it's either wires or something else. Anyone have any idea?

Sounds like fuel is not getting into the engine for some reason.

Re: 09 Honda Civic wont doest start

Hard to tell if the fuel pump came on or not. These are pretty stout cars from what I know there is no known problem re: this type of starting issue. 80k miles? Was the car ever in any major accidents?

Only thing I could think of is sometimes if you cut the starter short while starting it could take an extra 10 seconds of cranking to finally turn on. Used to happen to my older 06 ex once in a blue moon.

First see if you can hear the fuel pump prime when you turn the key, if so then try keeping the key cranked 10-15 seconds, Report back here what you find.
