hi, i just brought a 1989 civic cx hatch, the guy body is in great condition, but since the car was sitting at my friend's garage for 2 years.

haha, thats one hell of a funny typo, anyway, you could try cleaning the injectors, putting a distributer cap and rotor on it, or just try some starter fluid, once i got my old jetta started with starter fluid after it had been sitting for 3 years it ran great ever since.



anyways, congrats on the new car and post some pics!

Check for spark and fuel. A little tune up may help your no start problem...
