CRX : no restart after stall
1988 CRX DX. Stock. Ok otherwise except that exhaust smells rich
pretty regularly. Just did TP sensor. No MIL. Will check for LED blink codes tomorrow(today) SITUATION: cold engine. 60 degrees outside. Start up and then warm up for 10 mins and then accidentally stall 'cause I'm on a hill and had the E-brake engaged too many clicks for take-off to prevent rolling in the lake 8^) Tried to restart and...nothing. Not even a sputter/stumble/failed attempt. Turns over like a champ. Walked away for NO MORE than 5-10 mins and tried again. Perfect, started right up. Thoughts? I had noticed this off and on from time to time over the years, but about now I'm in the mode of "gettin' the BS fixed!" Thoughts? And Thank You in advance, as always. Kevin. |

CRX : no restart after stall
Dying after being warmed up then failing to re-start for several
minutes point to a bad ignition coil (located at the distributor. Consider replacing the igniter at the same time. Use OEM only. OEM here pays for itself. This should help, too: http://www.tegger.com/hondafaq/faq.html#startrun |

Hard to say, for me. Tried to do an exact "reinactment" last night. But no luck. It wouldn't fail. Will try again. Was kinda sorta under the impression that "flooded" applied to carbs, not FI. This CRX if DPFI if that helps. |

This > CRX if DPFI if that helps. no, "flooded" happens to fi as well. have you looked at the ecu to see if there are any codes stored? if it's 16, there's a good chance the problem is the main relay. tegger has the explanation [and cure] on his excellent website. otherwise, investigate ell and tegger's suggestions here.

Thoughts? > > Wild-assed guess: engine flooded with fuel, which had a chance to > evaporate? I've had this happen to me if the engine kicked backwards a little while it stalled. It seemed to be something that the ECU decided was wrong. If I wait a while it will reset and start just fine, if I was in a hurry I would just pull the ECU fuse under the hood for about 10 seconds and it starts immediately. Marty |
