    2004 Honda Civic vti s manual
    1mo ago nasira alternator ko, tinangal ko battery terminals (+/-)
    This week kinabit bagong alternator, binalik battery terminals (Battery is charged)
    Pag start, mag crank pero di tumutuloy yung engine.
    2days na sa casa yung kotse, di nila makita problema.
    Na check na electricals
    - Battery ok, ECU ok, Sensors ok, Sparkplugs (new) ok, Injector ok, Fuel pump ok
    Na check na engine
    - Timing belt ok, Oil pressure ok, Pistons ok
    Throttle body cleaned, fuel drained replaced with new fuel, lines were cleaned including the injector.
    Original and duplicate key from casa used.
    Still no start. Ano po kaya problema?

    If your engine cranks & does not fire up, your electrical supply is no doubt ok & leaves you to question your fuel supply. Considering that your engine was not used for a month(?), your fuel lines might be clogged ( fuel filter element might have disintegrated or hardened sediment is clogging your filter). Try to clean your fuel lines & change your fuel filter first. I presume your engine timing, TPS, & other sensors are within normal limits?

    Ignition coils? HT wires? Some busted fuse or loose connections of vital sensors?

    sir/ mam fuel from gas tank was emptied, replaced with a new one. fuel line was cleaned including the injectors. honda technician told me that engine timing, TPS, & other sensors normal. HT wires were ok, I was not able to ask re: ignition coil. all my fuses are ok. sensors are ok. I have told them that my suspect is that the immobilizer was reset and it cannot recognize my original keys so no gas is being injected to the engine.

    Aside from that, when they spray carb cleaner in the throttle body engine will start for a few seconds then it will die.

    Still I suspect fuel-starvation. Did you change your fuel filter?

    had experience over non-use of car for a few months. the then-new formulation of alcohol-gasoline had turned to gel! had to replace the fuel line and the gas tank.
    have no idea as to the chemical reaction that did it.

    i don't believe this, how incompetent that casa is... casa = service manuals, if they can't make it to run then run away because they don't know what they are doing of just scamming you...

    on your description all basic has been checked to fire up the engine, but the question is, did they really checked it, because if yes then that should start na.... unless your engine components is stuck up

    3rd day na sa casa. Wala paring matinong diagnosis kung bakit ayaw umandar ang makina

    Baka naman nakahuyan na ng pyesa? Wag naman sana. Kumusta timing belt? Baka may bungi.

    kung minsan sa casa mahirap din, pag wala na stored dtc (trouble codes) dead end na. parang hindi nila ma analyze ang live data.

    Fuel and sparks lang iyan,- dapat putok na kahit palyado pa....One of them is definitely missing..... And then, trace back to source...

    Grabe, they cannot figure out what's wrong with a 10 year old car?

    Casa people sometimes are like headless chickens.

    Casa's mostly operate with apprentice, maybe 2 or 1 are the only real mechanic that you wouldnt really call experts. They are only good reading codes and troubleshooting by the books. Those experienced and good mechanics were long gone working abroad. You'd sometimes better off with roadside talyer having more experience in troubleshooting.

    TS, if you're suspecting immobilizer shutting your injectors then start working with the immobilizer. Possibilites are your computer got fried or needs reprogramming. Swapping parts could be the best way to check. Dalhin mo yan sa banawe, tapos na yan.
