1994 Honda Civic Stalls

With the aide of another test the spark to the plugs. Do this one at a time so you don't confuse the wires. Test them to see if there is a good blue firing. You can use an old spark plug or pull one out and use it on the rest of the wires. Make sure the tip is grounded to the engine.

Make sure that the vehicle is getting fuel to the cylinders. With the wire off one of the plugs crank over the engine several times and immediately pull the plug out and see if there is fuel on the plug. You should be able to see the wet and smell it.

Has the check engine light come on? Is the engine turning over at a normal speed that it usually cranked at?

Check the coolant level at the radiator. How much white smoke are we talking about? Did it smell sweet? You may have hit on the key to the problem. Check the oil for any coolant in it. There are tests to see if the head gasket is gone. I suspect if the cloud of white was fairly big that you have a failed head gasket. Cars will NOT run on water, atleast not your car.
