Honda prelude 1989 motor HELP!!!!?

1. Engines for this generation prelude cost less than $900 shipped.

You should check and make sure that all of your ground wires a properly connected and that they are not corroded.

A very common thing that happens with our generation lude is that when you buy an aftermarket Distributor Cap and Rotor, the screw for the rotor is cheap and loosens over time.

Take you distributor cap off and check to see if the rotor is on tight. I'm pretty sure that that is your problem. If you wouldve broken your timing belt, you wouldve heard some valves crunching.

Check out the 3rd gen forum on www.preludepower.com. They have a list of where to buy 3g B20a engines. Also try www.Prelude3g.com.

start by checking the timming belt yourself by opening the oil fill cap and looking inside while someone cranks the engine if you see the cams and the lifters/cam followers moving the the timming belt is not broken. there is the possiblity that it jumped timming and if it did you have to check the timing by removing the valve cover and seeing if the marks line up. if the belt is still good and the cams are moving check for spark by removing a sparkplug wire and putting a screwdriver in the end then lay the screwdriver down so that the metal is close (about a few mm) to a ground such as any metal part of the car if you have to hold it you should be ok the handle of the screwdriver is well insulated then have a friend crank the car and see if you have spark. if you dont then you should replace your ignition coil and ignitor(ignition modual). also check your oil and coolant to see if it has mixed if it has the oil will be like milk and that meas that you blew your head gasket. hope this helps some

I would just sell the car, since it's worth about $2500.00 and engines run about $2000

what engine b20a; b16; h22???
