Need Help Engine Problems

XaddictX · 03-03-2007, 02:52 PM

I have a 95 honda civic, that I was driving in the rain, and it felt like it was bogging out, so i kept hitting on the gas, and it finally caught back on, and then drove a little while further and it did the same thing, except this time it stalled out, and it would start back up. Its like I can start it up, but as soon as it starts it dies, and if i dont turn back the key it wont even start at all, until i turn back the key, and then start it again, and it will start and then die again. I have tooken apart my distibutor cap, and had no moisture in it, and I have no idea what is wrong with my car. Could someone please help me out ASAP, and tell me if its a sensor or what? Thanks alot

maybe sucked water into the intake

XaddictX · 03-03-2007, 03:14 PM

how would you get out the water?

slow2000z28 · 03-03-2007, 04:00 PM

pull the plugs and crank it over to expell any water

do you have spark? is there water in the intake man? that sucks

XaddictX · 03-03-2007, 05:24 PM

actually i pulled the plugs out cranked it and no water came out. I used starting fluid on it and it started, but it started bogging out again and shaking bad, and then stalled again, and i couldnt get it going again. Could it be the fuel filter or fuel pump or what?

There could be water in the gas tank

I have got my car going again! YES finally, You know what it was? The fuel filter was clogged, so once i replaced it, it fired right up. Stupid POS.
