exact thing happend to me while driving same car also.....:p
it could also be timing belt has snapped....
take the rocker cover off and see if the belt is still attached, if so, then try changing dizzy cap and rotor button.
as stated above ^^^^^ when you turn on your ignition if you hear the fuel pump thats all good. i belive the issue should be your dizzy. had the same issue as you but car wasnt on the road when it happened thankfully. just droped it at the garage and the following morning the mech calls and tells me the dizzy has gone for a six.
if the timing belt snapped the side belts wouldnt move right? and i would hear crunching noises right? cause the engine sounds fine when trying to start it and the side belts move too. i hope it aint the timing belt, if it is then GG to the engine =(. hope its the ignition coil
If it was timing belt the car wouldnt turn on, and you'd just hear spinning. When mine snapped revs dropped and lost power, once turned off couldnt turn it on again. Any mods to your car? Check coils and sparks dizzy also prob not getting proper sparks. Just my 2 cents.
my car doesnt turn on but i dont hear any spinning, uh oh hope its not the timing belt....sigh gotta wait till monday to find out. i guess i can always put in a H22a engine in if its gone lol
by the sound of it i reckon it is your dizzy or even the alternator. Good luck anyway keep us postedQuote:

dizzy is distributor.
on your engine its the black this with 4 black cables coming out of it into the middle of your engine.
if your timing belt snapped, and your engine turns youll hear a free spinning sound.
you said it turned off while your driving.
if your timing belt snaped youll hear a clunk, a jolt n then a coast. Vtir integra. meaning manual. youd certainly feel it if your timing belt snapped while cruising, cause ud b in gear.
if your car doesnt crank.
check state of battery. replace if needed.
if not, charge/jumpstart battery start and check charge rate.
replace alternator if needed.
check ignition coil in the distributor (recommend a mechanic to do it for you. since you dont know wat a dizzy is. you mess around with timing, you could be in for more than 80 bux).

how much would a new dizzy cap and rotor button be for a b18b2 roughly?
i got a second hand good condition dizzy and rotor button for b18c7 ITR
i think brand new is like $90 for cap and $20 for button
