If fuel pump is new inspect wireing going to fuel pump look for missing insulation something is shorting to ground.

For Timing Belt and Tensioner check this procedure to Removal & Installing

1992-95 Engines
(see Figures 7 and 8)

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. Slightly raise and support the driver's side of the vehicle, remove the driver's side wheel. Remove the driver's side wheel well splash shield.
2. Remove the air conditioning compressor adjust pulley with bracket and the belt (if equipped with air conditioning).
3. Remove the side engine mount bracket. Loosen the alternator adjust bolt and through-bolt then remove the belt.
4. Remove the engine support bolts and nuts, then remove the side mount rubber.
5. Unfasten the crankshaft pulley bolt and remove the crankshaft pulley.
6. Remove the timing belt upper cover and lower cover.
7. Mark the rotation of the timing belt (for easy installation). Loosen the adjusting bolt, then remove the timing belt.

Fig. 8: Turn belt as shown in the direction of the arrow. Be sure to check the belt's teeth for wear
Inspect the timing belt. Replace it if it has been in service longer than 90,000 miles, if it is oil soaked (find and correct the source of the oil leak), or if it is worn on the leading edges of the belt teeth.


To install:

1. Double check the position of the engine. The timing pointer must be aligned with the mark on the flywheel; the cam pulley must be set so the small dot or the word UP is vertical and the marks on the edges of the pulley are aligned with the surface of the head.
2. Install the belt on the pulleys.
3. Be sure to adjust the timing belt as follows:
   

The tensioner is spring-loaded to apply proper tension to the timing belt automatically after making the following adjustment. Be sure to always adjust the timing belt tension with the engine cold.

1. After installing the timing belt, adjust the belt tension by first rotating the crankshaft counterclockwise 1/4 turn or three teeth on the camshaft pulley (this will put tension on the timing belt). Then, re-tighten the adjusting bolt and finally the tensioner pivot bolt. After adjustments are complete, be sure to re-tighten the crankshaft pulley bolt to specifications.
2. Start the car and check for smooth operation.

Do not remove the adjusting or pivot bolts, only loosen them. When adjusting, do not use any force other than the adjuster spring. If the belt is too tight, it will result in a shortened belt life.


Hope helps.

Main relay is bad. Its on the drives side kickpanel. it does not look like you normal relay. Look for a black or brown box maybe 2x4in with about 4-8 wires running to it. And replaced it.

If that engine has an old dist with a coil, try one side of the coil, if that doesn't do it, try the other. If the coil is not present, but a coil pack, you will have wires coming out of it, besides the plug wires, one of them will do it, try the red one. make sure the tach is grounded and just check it with a test wire. It should go. Hope this helps.

check your crank and cam position relays.

Well the parking lamp and brake lamp on at the same time is normally the result of the wring bulb installed or a bulb filament has blown and grounded to either the brake or parking lamp system.Check all the bulbs for a blown or damaged filament and replace as necessary.As far as the no start is concerned, i need more information. Hope this helps you out, Ken

The spring they are referring to is probably the pressure plate, which has cantilever springs used to engage the clutch disk.

It is 1-3-4-2......and the distributor (rotor button) rotates clockwise...number 1, is the cylinder closest to the guard......

the ignition igniter module is a common failure on this car, replace that, also replace the distributor pickup assembly, see picture below, it is mounted to the distributor.

Change the fuel filter if you already haven't. The pressure has to drop for the fuel pump to come on so if the fuel filter is only letting little fuel through, the pump will not come on & fuel pressure on the engine side of the filter will take a long time to build up & allow the pump to come on. I feel this is the problem. Good luck!

For most people with 1992 Honda Civics this code can be resolved by checking the connections on the Cylinder position/camshaft position sensor which is located near the distributor. Make sure it is not shorting out and clean the area. If that doesn't work then the distributor needs to be replaced. Thanks for using Fixya.

go to oreillys and ask for de-carbonizer.its in a little orange/red bottle. ITs called RXP Kicker is the fastest way to clean out combustion chambers and exhaust systems, reduce emissions (CO, VOC's and NOx)/ Co is what you have too much of

if your hearing a high pitched sound,it is probably your alternator working overtime to charge your battery,if it idles at a higher rpm,then someone tweeked ur idle speed,check under the hood,u can easily release using a wrench,

You must of loss power to the whole car and now you need the codes to reactivate the radio
Call Honda, with your vin # and they will help you get your tunes

hi yes this is true you will have to buy the complete wishbone with the ball joint in, these are moulded parts and unlike most vehicles the ball joint is not removable ...hope this helps
