Could be your alternator as well. Just give it a check. Same case like my Evo....alternator not charging the battery enough

from my experience:

single 'tek' and no crank = starter broke (not enough charge in battery if the all those indicators in the display goes out when turning key to start)

multiple 'tek tek tek' and no crank = starter on the way to be completely broke (needs luck so that the rotor is inline with the starter brush so it can rotate) PS: i think this is your case

single 'tek' or multiple 'tek tek tek' and cranking = there is no such thing :) life is a bit humorous at times

no 'tek' or 'tek tek tek' but cranking, no ignition = check fuel pump (you can remove fuel hose from the rail and ask someone to turn key to ignition, check if flowing then stop immediately upon confirmation) or spark plugs PS: i doubt this is your case, because this will also affect car when driving/idling

cheers

Hi all, i have 1 things that wonder me a lot. i have this 1991 fourth generation Honda civic with 1.5L SOHC single carburated engine and manual 5-speed transmission gearbox. The questions are:

1) can i convert the carbureted engine into a THROTTLE BODY INJECTED(TBI) engine?

2) which is better convert to TBI or convert into b16a engine

3) if convert to b16a engine do i have to add E.C.U



i hope all the expert out there can help, thank you
