I have replaced the spark plugs,the battery, the fuel filter, and checked the spark plug wires. I have taken it to 2 mechanics and am told it has plenty of spark. After the battery was replaced, the car started fine for about a month. Can anyone help? This is my teenage daughter's car and I don't want her stranded.

Try some isopropyl dry gas and some fuel injector solvents in fuel - at least it would rule that out. It can take a while for them to work so be patient. A day or more may be needed. Note: There is a major difference in dry gas. One only prevents freezing, the one I suggested takes the water out! There is always some water in a gas tank, and the older they get the more there is. Good luck, concernedmom New User Apr 6, 2005, 5:06 AM Post #3 of 3 (4576 views) Re: 98 Honda Civic Trouble starting Sign In Tom, Thanks for the advice. We tried it and it seems to have solved the problem.
