i need to move out!!!!

alright so heres the problem. i was unhooking my throttle body on my four speed 90 honda civic standard, and the car started before this. all it needed was an auxillary fuel injector. but the fuel line started dumping gas when i disconnected it and my buddy was smoking. so my engine caught fire. yes completely caught fire. then he ran and got a grip of water and dumped it all over the engine. mostly the intake manifold tho. my car at least started before this happened, and now my car wont start. could i have fried a wire somewhere and thats the reason my car wont start?

Re: i need to move out!!!!

your probably melted alot of your subharness becuase the injector harness runs all under your manifold and the gas line is right above the wire so im sure oy ufried the subharness jsut go fidn a wreck one and pull off the hole harness and swap it in.

Re: i need to move out!!!!

but would that cause the car to not start at all? i mean i think i would get like a stutter start or something. the motor doesnt even turn over. theres not even a clicking sound.

Re: i need to move out!!!!

well Mr. gofast yes this would cause the car not to even turn over because the start signal wire runs in that coiled mess of wires thus making the car not turn over.

dude, the wire is what 18-20 guage, you can split a wire like by looking at it too hard, even the smallest of fires wouldve split those wires, so yes that is your problem.
