    2000 Honda Civic DX
    I can try to start my car, it will will TRY to turn over to no avail. What happened was I had just started the car when at home. I was no less than a mile down the road when it seemed like it had just lost power and slowed down to a rolling stop. The lights all work, the car dings when I open the door, and it will attempt to start, just will no turn all the way over. Is this a fuel issue? Any ideas on where I should start? Again, it is a 2000 Honda Civic DX (Automatic 1.6L)

    Start by fully charging or replacing the battery.

    I removed the battery and had it tested at AutoZone. Test out just fine! They guaranteed me that my problem was the Alternator.
