Well my car cranks over but it doesnt start.It has no spark.I could hear the fuel pump come on (5 seconds).Ive always had starting problems. i have so far replaced my battery,coil,rotor,cap.My cars stuck in the middle of knowhere at a gas station.I need to get it running before people start jacking stuff off my car.The next thing i was gonna replace was the main relay.Does honda test them that way i dont waste my money buying one.

I woudl check the timing belt. Check your rotor make sure it didnt like fall off. If you hear the fuel pump then its not the main relay.
On a side note main relays from honda are no longer $35, they have gone up to almost $80.

Well if he would have said it was at a pump I was going to say he should stick his car in neutral and push his car to a spot...so people can still get ripped off for gas :iceslolan

I think I'm having the same problem as you did, the ignitor is about the only part I haven't checked yet but I'm not sure what to look for... could you please describe what it looks like (color, wires to it, etc)? is that near the toothed wheel for the crankshaft position sensor or whatever that's called?

stupid igniter....Mine quit at 75,000 miles. There was a recall by Honda on those...If you can prove (most likely thru the VIN) that it was the original, Honda should pay for it.

Actually, I had taken my CRX to the dealership to have the ignitor replaced as well, and they had said they couldn't replace it, because there was a certain year limit, or something along those lines. Long story short- They left me with the ignitor in it's same condition.
How much is the ignitor through the dealership, anyone?
