Buyer pulled engine wires, car won't start?
I recently had a buyer come check out my 1997 Honda Civic sedan, and while the engine was running he was pulling the wires out from the spark plugs. The car stalled and hasn't been able to start since but it does crank. Any idea on how to fix this? Any help appreciated

Thanks

Buyer needs *** kicked LOL and car probably needs a coil....and just so you know, it was already had before buyer did that. Opening up a huge spark gap just pushed it over the edge.
