Honda Civic EX 1998 manual. Car keeps cranking forever when I turn ingnition key and won't start. Tried jumping but still does not start.
The last time it started was when I was changing the stereo headunit and I was afraid it would drain the battery while I was testing the sound so I started it for about 2 minutes. I just changed the spark plugs and the problem still exists.. it's just a straight crank noise without any sign of choking when the ignition key is turned. No warning lights on the dash. I tried putting it in gear and giving it gas and jumping the car but that didn't work either. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

 

i dunno give it sum starting fluid it might help

 

if you were changing the radio its a possibility you may have blown a fuse. id check fuses?

 

It always comes down to three things.

Fuel
Spark
Compression


Check for all three, and go from there.

 

a good nice easy way to test your spark if u dont already know is to take out the plug, reconnect the HT wire and hold the plug on something metal like the engine block and crank the engine you should be able to see a spark
