im putting money on dizzy cap and or rotor.

Similar thing happened to me recently....whole day of wakefield (track) then on teh way home we did a couple of spurts "fast" - then a short time later the engine died , no spark. ended up being a failed rotor and cap.

Yeh beenjamin, was deff the rotor check the picture above. All the threads on the rotor just shattered. When i pulled the dizzy cap off it just fell apart into about 30 pieces. So the car just wasnt sparking at all.

whoop just read the rest..
funnily , hen mine died it was still in physical good condition - no breaks or cracks etc.Just simply didnt work.

Bearings seem pretty good claymore, i checked em before i put the new rotor on. No play so that was good. either way it was only a $50 buck fix, i got a new one from Honda and it works perfectly fine now

cheers for all the help guys
