My 1994 honda prelude dont want to start. I dont think it the starter nor the battery, what can it be?

Question

Please help.

Answer 1

it has to be something on that order. to make sure it is not the battery or the starter, take it to auto zone and have them checked.

Answer 2

It might be your spark plugs.  If those aren't gapped correctly or have gotten loose, they may not be creating sparks.

Best way to tell is a mechanic.

Answer 3

It could be many things... it could be your alternator, spark plugs, timing belt, etc. Best bet is to take it to a mechanic or have someone that you know that is good with cars take a look at it. It could be very simple, or quite complicated.

Good luck!!

Answer 4

engine consist of many parts which effect starting and performance like camtrain work of this part is to take fuel & to exhaust smoke maybe fuel is not reaching engine on right time .

Answer 5

Do the battery nodes show corrosion?  If so, buy a battery cleaner...pour a little baking soda or soda on the nodes, then scrape them with the battery cleaner...

If it's not the spark plugs, then you could have a bad battery or alternator.

Answer 6

I have never seen worse diagnostics than these answers to date. I can tell by your question you should not be working on this poor car. You don't give nearly enough information to allow us to be of help. Don't change any parts based on the advice you have received so far. Call a mechanic. It will be cheaper in the long run, I promise you.
