Asked by Michael Jan 04, 2013 at 03:39 PM about the 1995 Honda Civic DX

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

my car died why i was driving it didnt make any sound and still had full power. now it turns over but wont start it all
most sounds like its back firing. i have spark i have gas and the timing is only off by a little but am fixing it soon. but
i dont think the timing is off enough for it to make the car not start. any ideas could it be something stupid like MAF
sensor? im not getting why its not starting. everything looks fine and i have never had any trouble with the car in the
past.

When was the last time you checked the timing belt? Most likely out of time now.

My daughter called me and told me what was going on. She said gas hand just dropped and dashboard didn't light up, and the brakes got hard to press.
