Help! AT Civic biglang namatay makina, ayaw na mag-start

Kung namatayan ka ng makina dahil nawalan ng fuel, fill it up and put the key to the ON position but do not start the car. Do this a few times to let the fuel pump put in fuel sa engine. Then after a few tries, start it again. Hopefully eto lang...

You said no power steering and no brakes? I think this is a secondary effect nung namatay yung makina.

Have you had the timing belt replaced na? Oil level ok naman? How about the belts?

Unang kutob ko no fuel din, happened to my brother in law's ESI as well, paexit sya ng parking ramp (pababa) then namatay oto, ayaw mag start... When we poured 1.5 liters of fuel in, I "primed" the fuel lines twice before starting, it didn't start at first, then sa 2nd time nagstart pero rough, after a few minutes of revving ok na sya.

Pero kakatakot yung "amoy sunog" na sinabi nyo... Usually kung naamoy mo na yung ganun na smell, medyo malaki na ang nasunog.

ako rin nagyari na sa akin yan, bigla na lng huminto. kala ko battery or carburator, yun pala wala nga gas kahit medyo mataas pa rin yung indicator ng gas. ang ginawa ng mechanic, binuhusan nya ng kunti yng carb ng gas, yun nag start naman sa second try.

Tried to start the car this morning. Ayaw pa rin. Just noticed na nakailaw yung D3 indicator. Ayaw pumatay.

shiet.I didn't know you have a 94' civic.I don't know how to manually scan your car since its pre OBDII.

Confirmed. Ecu is busted. May dumating na mechanic and sunog nga yung ecu. Hindi na yata ma-repair since may tama na yung circuit board. Saan ba merong surplus na ok?

**obiwan** · August 28th, 2006 05:26 PM

did the mechanic check the TIMING BELT? I replaced mine (same year model) after 80k mileage

**baludoy** · August 28th, 2006 05:36 PM

any symptoms you noticed prior to the actual shorting of your ecu bos? any warning signs?

sa hcpi selling thread may nakita ako nyan dati binebenta.

found the link.not sure if this is adaptable to your car though
