I have a 92 civic EX that has been giving me problems. We changed the battery about a month ago, and has been OK until about a week ago. I was on the freeway going about 70 and all of a sudden the car just shut off. After about an hour and 1/2, my husband tried to start it, but it didn't start... so we jumpped it and it started. We got it to an Auto Zone, had the alternator checked, and we replaced it... still didn't start. We replaced the whole distributor and the cap, that didn't work either. Spark plugs are OK, fuel pump is OK, so we replaced the ECU. Still doesn't start. I have no idea what it could possibly be. Can anyone help me? The car sounds like it wants to start, but it doesn't. What do you think the problem is?:confused: Oh, and now it doesn't even start when jumpped...
