I replaced the cap and rotor last week and it ran fine until last night. The car just stopped running, no funny noises, no jerking, nothing. Just died and still wont start at all, I've killed the battery twice trying to crank it. Ignition Coil or O2 sensor??
Check the distributor for loose wires inside.
Check the main relay and fuse.
Don,t forget the basics. Its happened to me. Be suspect of the new rotor and maybe the cap. Carefully crank over with coil wire removed from cap and laying near a ground, if you have spark reconnect the coil wire and pull a plug wire. Insert a phillips screw driver into the plug end of the wire and repeat test. If you have no spark from the cap and plug wire, change the rotor first, then the cap if necessary. When it happened to me it was more than 90 days and I didn't save my receipt. If you get no spark at all on the first test, I would check the pickup coil assy that actually causes the coil to create a spark. While you have the cap off, crank the engine and be sure the distributor is turning, a sheared pin on the drive gear could be at fault. Finally if you have spark everywhere, the fuel supply and injection systems have so many possibilities, I advise experienced hands on help.
Jump timing loosen distributor and plus or minus turn and retighten

i know that if ur car died it most likely has something to do with the alternator or the process in which the fuel gets to the spark
SOURCE: 95 Acura Integra starting problem
This happened to me on a 95 Integra GSR and the entire starter did not need to be replaced, just the solenoid pieces. They get old and worn down and the plunger no longer makes a good connection with them, hence the "click". Replace the solenoid panels and sand the plunger and your good as new. You can find instructions for this on the net, just do a search for it.
SOURCE: NEW ALTERNATOR, NEW BATTERY, CAR still dies and wont start
Check the main power fuse that goes to the alternator output. if the alternator went out it could have burnt this fuse also.
SOURCE: 98 acura integra.....not getting spark to
is there power at the coil's electrical connector(key must be set to ON? Is some of your warning lights not lit(that normally light-up when key is on) such as airbag, abs, engine, battery etc??? If you answer yes to any of this, your ignition switch has failed. Acura/Honda models 97-02 have a recall on this in 2002 approx 1.5million vehicles affected. Symtoms include, intermitted speedometer/tach fluctuating to zero while car is in motion, intermitted stalling or no start(symtoms increase in hotter weather). The electrical contacts on these ignition switches are faulty causing shorts and archs within. Therefore power supply to vital engine electrical components are cut off. If this is the case, call your local Acura/Honda dealer with your vin# at hand, your vehicle may qualify for a free repair. Hopefully this helps....please rate thanks!!

It sounds like a common problem with the fuel pump relay. I am surprised your mechanics didnt think of this first instead of selling your lots of other stuff...or maybe I am not surprised!
The original part is a burnt orange colored RZ-0067 Main Relay and is found underneath the steering column. The relay's dimensions are close to the top flap of a hard pack of cigarettes. The relay is secured by a 10mm bolt, and is easily accessed by removing the front panel above your shins.
The said relay is frequently cited as the chief cause of not being able to start the car on a hot day. See http://www.honda-acura.net/forums/archive/index.php/t-85539.html, http://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1319817&postid=16772789 and http://autorepair.about.com/cs/troubleshooting/l/aa010301a.htm. It is also the least expensive (e.g. $35-50 for part) that a novice can do at home!
The RZ-0067 relay appears to have been replaced by the RZ-0063. See http://g2ic.com/forums/showthread.php?t=27612. It is identical to the RZ-0067 except it is black. See http://63.150.115.104/CommerceGateway/picturesHonda%20J-Pegs%5C39400SH3003.jpg
This is a very common reoccuring problem on Acura Integras as well as other Honda vehicles.
