If there is no power to the fuse then move forward if there is power on both nodes with the key on then move back to the fuel pump remove it and test the connections if they have...

    2006 Civic ex

    Power passes through the main relay then to the fuses and individual relays so if you have power to the fuses its not the main relay. If your main relay was bad nothing would power on Sent from my LG-LS997 using Tapatalk

    98 Civic losing power while driving

    Do as @boofoo said check all 4 plugs for spark. 3 basics points to check first when your car won't start; air, fuel and spark. Im curious to know if you have a faulty ignition coil in your distributor Sent from my LG-LS997 using Tapatalk

    Front brake swap - Retain 4 lug Hubs

    Not to sure about a answer to your question but I would find a ex and strip the front and back brakes off of it to put on your car. That way you'll have bigger brakes and know what to get down the road for a brake job rather then frankensteining it. Just my 2 cents Sent from my LG-LS997 using...

    Overheating while idling

    The fan switch is ground so unplug your fan switch located on your thermostat housing use a piece of wire to jump the 2 posts in the harness side of the plug and turn your ignition on if your fan turns on the switch is bad if it doesn't its either your fan relay fuse or fan itself. The next step...

    So the pedal is not coming back up when you release it? The petal does not go to your transmission it is linked to your slave master cylinder )which is the smaller of the 2 reservoirs under your hood on the driver side against the firewall) so any odd squishy or sticking feelings in the petal is...

    Clutch issues

    So bleed it again and see if that helps. Take a clean soda bottle or water bottle, put a hole in the cap to insert a hose into and a small breather hole, fill the bottle about a inch with dot 3 brake fluid. Insert the hose into the bottle down in the brake fluid put the other end onto the slave...
