    95 Honda civic lurching and smells like raw fuel
    I recently had my fuel filter changed and injectors cleaned in my Honda because it would turn over and not start. Two days after my car was fixed it began lurching and jumping on my way home from work. It sounds horribly unhealthy when started now and smells heavily of raw fuel anytime it is started. Please help!

    It sounds like the ignition system is compromised, resulting in excess unburned fuel. You likely need to replace the Ignition Control Module (ICM) and coil inside the distributor. Be sure to apply silicone heat transfer compound to the back of the new ICM.

    This work needs to be performed right away; otherwise, you run the risk of ruining the catalytic converter and blowing the exhaust system off the car, due to the build-up of unburned fuel.
