Hey guys,
Just got a couple of questions for some techies out there. I got an Integra LS 1989 and over the last 6-8 months I have found that sometimes it doesn't start (rarely). It was usually once I had been driving it, turned it off then trying to start it again. It basically just tries to start (I can hear the engine going but it just doesn't fire up. I believe it sounds something like having no fuel and trying to start a car. Anyway, over the last month or so the problem has been happening a lot on both cold and hot starts. A mate disconnected the distributor wires and and asked me to start it, that was exactly how the problem sounded. I just try to start the car periodically and it will usually fire up within 5 or so minutes, mind you, sometimes the car will go for days/weeks with starting first time. Today my revs tacho stopped working whilst driving. Are these things linked? is this a common problem with these cars? any idea on something I could try to fix it?
any help appreciated!
Thanks
