    Another 98 honda won't start
    This is my first post so please bear with me. I've owned this car since new, never had this problem before.I turn the key , the cel comes on then off , the fuel pump comes on then off, I hear the click
    The engine cranks but it won't start. Any help would be nice . I live in the northeast , the car started last week in -15 degree weather , now that its 40 degrees it won't start.Whats up with that! Thanks

    1. Check all under-dash and under-hood fuses with a test light or multimeter:

    2. Check for any codes.
    3. Focus on igniter and coil--many AutoZone stores have a Well's machine and will test igniters and coils for free. The problem likely resides here. Here's what the igniter looks like and costs:

    4. Ensure spark plugs, rotor, and distributor cap are in good shape. This is a good time to replace the rotor, since you will have the distributor open.
