----------------------------------------------------------------
I have a 1997 Honda Accord LX 4 cycl. Auotmatic..

I have had this accord in my garge for 6 months idled. I charged the battery, changed the plugs, cap and rotor and module..Half a tank of gas..The car starts but does turn over. I was told that maybe the distributor..The distributor looks clean no hairline fractures, no buring parts..

Can't get it to run..Help!

Could be a fuel or ignition problem-Try this disconnect a sparkplug wire and ground it to the engine and have helper crank engine over while you look spark-do you have spark? I need to know this before we continue.
