Why won't my car cranks but won't start?
I have a 1998 honda accord and the problem recently just started. I have brand new spark plugs i just bought, new wires also and a new radiator. Everything was working good now its frustrating. I have to press the gas to make it start and once it starts it runs perfectly fine. Another thing to mention is my engine shakes very wild and i have no idea why. Before i take the car to the shop to save money i want to know if its a simple solution. My co worker was telling me it because i need a new TPS but i'm not so sure please help.
Maybe you should have a mechanic check it out
Make sure you don't have the spark plug wires mixed up. The firing order is 1-3-4-2 with cylinder 1 being the one at the end with the alternator/water pump/AC compressor, and 4 being the one at the transaxle end.
"Runs perfectly" "Shakes very wild and I have no idea why'. Those contradict each other. Simple solution? Let a mechanic look at it. It's either an Ignition or Fuel Delivery problem. And we can't tell from here.
Get a block test done to determine if the head gasket is bad.
Bad ignition switch, that year was recalled.
"Why won't my car cranks but won't start". Does that actually make sense to you?
Pull the OBD2 trouble codes for definite answers. Lots of things can cause that, but OBD2 never lies or guesses.
- 2004 Honda Pilot Cranks but won't start if I press the gas when starting it starts.Engine lights is off,? Maintenance required is on but when I reset the lights turned off and everything works for now? What would be the problem? 1. I'm thinking it is the Timing belts slips 2. Relay maybe lose 3. Crank position sensor lose What would be the reason trying to get opinion and will look into it whatever is the best possible problem.
- I have a Honda Harmony HRB215 K4 SDA that won't pull start but if I take off the recoil and drill start it, it runs perfect? I have a Honda Harmony HRB215 K4 SDA that won't pull start but if I take off the recoil and drill start it, it runs perfect. I did a compressin test, the pull start only gets the mower to 60psi but the drill gets the mower to 150psi. This mower does have a decompression vale where the ehaust opest about 1/8 of the way. I tore the ead off and checked and cleaned the valves. They don't stick open. Could there be an issue with the decompression valve? Or would it be the piston rings?
- How come my atv won't electric start but will crank if I push start it? 2006 Honda trx. Doesn't have a pull rope only electric start. The starter motor turns over the engine but just won't start but I'll push it down the yard with it in gear and it will fire right up. I'm so confused by this.
- My car won't start but when I try to start it, it sounds like a power drill? I have a 95 Honda Civic and it does not start it keeps making a noise that sounds like a power drill spinning. I have no idea what it is or could be any more. I've pulled the starter and put in a new one and the starter is still not catching the fly wheel. I have even resorted to charging the battery, checking all fluids (transmission, antifreeze, etc.) and putting in 5 gallons of gas but still nothing, can't pay to get it to a shop. Anything helps thanks.
