2000 Civic Ex 1.6 SOHC won't start, no spark.
Was driving home the other day, stopped at a stopsign, took off and my car died. Now, about 3 days before I was in a wreck but it was minimal damage, and only bodu damage, so I didn't associate the two. Especially because it ran perfectly. Fuel pump comes on, all fuses are intact, no spark. I'm buying a test light today but I'm so poor right now its not even funny. Can someone please walk me through what to test? I'm pretty sure its my igniter because I used a 13w lightbulb to try and test see if it would light, and it didn't. This may be because they use different voltages? Not sure. But I have my distributor open ready to replace the ingniter if need be. Also, if the tachometer jumps when I try to start the car, wouldn't this mean the igniter is bad because the tach is connected to the igniter. Just a thought. Thanks guys! I'm really banking on your help because I'm 19 paying all my bills, school, and now this with my little Starbucks job :(
