Default i have come to the conclusion that.....

civics are junk. so far, i have changed the dist cap, rotor button, ignition coil, pickups in the dist., plugs and wires, and lower half of the dist. well, now the damn car wont even start. before it would die while at a stop light. 2 nights ago it ran perfect. now we get up this morning and it wont even start. it cranks but wont start. wtf else is there to look at? i hate this ****ing car..btw: its a 92 dx 4dr auto

Did you take the distributor off? If so, you may have put it back on with the rotor turned around... I had the same problem just recently.

Has it always run like this or did you just get it?

cars arn't as good when they're 10+ years old. Maybe you should take better care of it.
