So I picked up a 91 Civic DX yesterday, only thing wrong with it is the motor doesn't run. So, I've been going through the troubleshooting steps to see what the issue may be.
It gets fuel, it gets spark. No question about those two.
My only question is the starter. I think the starter may be bad, it doesn't sound like it's working properly. It cranks the motor and everything turns, but I'm questioning if it's turning fast enough or powerfully enough.
Original owner said it just died on the highway. The mechanic told her the timing belt blew out and the valves were warped. Timing belt is fine, and valves look okay. I'm thinking alternator.
Would a cracked engine block cause it to just up and stop running?
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm just going through the steps, so I wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions that I could try out.
