Hi All,
car is a 94 honda accord, the non vtec ones.
Replaced spark plugs yesterday and pulled one out while the car was running (2nd from lft to right). the car suddenty stopped...
couldn't get it to start afterwards.
found out that theres no spark in any of them.
Pulled distributor cap off, found a lot of corrosion around...sanded a bit out...then did a search on the forums. now im gonna try this ICM test for the coils..
its not my car but a friends, pretty sure its not immobiliser or anything like that..
But basically if theres power i nthe ICM and no resistance in the coils then it's the coil right? if the coils all fine...could be some sort of immobiliser or something?
checked things like fuses etc. all seem fine.
does anyone know what could have happened? why the engine cut off when the spark plug was removed? i thought it would just shutter and everything and run crap on 3 cylinders.
any help is appreciated :)
