Car just shut off while driving.

Car: Acura, Integra GSR, 2000, 1.8 Vtec     -    Back to Fix-It    -    Acura Integra GSR Repair Manuals

Q.got a 2000 gsr that just shut off while driving. thought it was fuel pump so i replaced it, that wasn't it so i figured it was spark. changed spark plugs, wires, cap and rotor...still nothing. today i replaced the entire distributor and still won't turn over. would love some help.

I already checked/done: changed fuel pump, spark plugs, entire distributor

Answer First of all lets find out if we have spark, compression and fuel before changing any more parts. Pull a plug wire off and put an old plug in it and hold it against the head an crank the engine to see if you have spark. Crack one of the nuts o the fuel line 1/8 turn and turn the key "on" see if fuel comes out. Then if you have spark and fuel do a compression test and see if the engine has compression. Let me know what you have and don't have and we can start to test the system.
