clocker man, i dunno&#33;&nbsp; i&#39;m a computer guy, not a car guy - all i know is it&#39;s broken&#33;&nbsp;

That&#39;s not true.
You probably know more than you think, you just don&#39;t know how to start eliminating the variables.
It&#39;s really not that different than trying to diagnose a PC problem.

The problem with your car ( or any car from that era) is that it is computer controlled and there are only a few things that you can diagnose without hooking to a monitor.

You could just have a clogged/blocked fuel filter or line. Such a problem would allow the car to idle, maybe even rev up in neutral, but it would die under load (ie-in gear). After a few minutes, fuel pressure would build up again and the car would start. [/b][/quote]
eh screw it - i&#39;ll just take it 2 the BODY SHOP like toko suggested.

i&#39;m not gonna worry bout it 2nite - i&#39;ll wait till the mornin when i forget about it and go 2 leave 4 work.

it&#39;ll b like a nice surprise - like a christmas present&#33;

You live in the Uk dont you ? if so I will come over and help you fix it ,provided we can run someone over with it.

EDITk now that I have read over your thread more carefully I see you live in the states ,which does me no good in this hit and run thing I wanted to do.
But I think I know your prob.
It sounds like an air flow problem combined with the carb.

That can&#39;t be... It&#39;s fuel injected.

Sounds like your Honda Civic has just had its timing belt jump a notch. When was the last time that belt was serviced?
