    95' Honda Civic won't start. HELP!
    My 95' Honda Civic won't start. It didn't start about a week ago for a few days, then randomly started up again. I went to Wal-Mart and got my oil changed and filled it up with gas. I got my battery tested, and its fine.
    Then today my car won't start again. It is stranded at school, and I would like to get it out of the school parking lot soon. Please help.
    - Thanks -

    I assume this is a "Crank but Won't Start" situation.

    Turn the ignition switch to ON. Does the Check Engine Light (CEL) come on and then go off after 2 seconds? During this period, do you hear the fuel pump in the gas tank run? Is there a relay click sound when the CEL goes out? This is important diagnostic data, so answer each question specifically.

    If you want me to help diagnose your car's problem, you need to respond much faster. It takes active participation by both parties; otherwise, it doesn't work.

    Maybe your starter has a short if it starts sometimes but not all the time. It could just be a wire that isn't connecting to where it should in your starter. Have your starter checked out or just get a new one.
