Just finished tune up now car won't start, please help its gettin dark out here.

Well the clutch is done and I just did plugs/wires/cap/rotor on my 93 civic. I went to turn it on, turned on fine for 5 seconds, then it turned off and it won't start. I have no idea what I did wrong. I even went back and changed everything, still won't turn over. Any ideas anyone?

Sounds like something is off... Maybe a wire is on the wrong plug, cap not on properly, or the rotor is not installed properley?? I'd check and recheck. Something's got to be off..

93 civic

am I missing something here?

I am all about helping people, but diagnosing your car problems on a car other than a Acura CL or over the internet for that matter is alittle out in left field.

is it dark yet?....

Make sure you put the wires back on the distributor cap in the correct firing order.
