that sounds like a good idea but it is very hard to reach my starter. I live in an apartment complex that frowns on people working on their cars in the parking lot so i'm going to have to have it towed to a shop which really sucks because i'm sure they're going to try to gouge me, not to mention the towing cost.

I also have a 94 Civi LX that never breaks down and a 99 chevy tahoe that also never breaks down at all so i'm disappointed in my 04 Accord which was actually driven pretty easy by my wife.

So far I've had to replace the power steering, fix the a/c and brake light switch, auto trans shifter **** and now the headliner is sagging too

 

Here's an easy idea to see if the engine is turning, while someone turns the key, either watch the crank nut that drives all the belt devices or remove the oil cap and watch if there is rocker activity .

If it is turning the engine over then check the 15 Amp PGM FI fuse to see if there is any spark happening. From that point, if you pull a spark plug the plug end should be wet with gas if the injectors are working, that should only take a couple of minutes so you might be able to hopefully sneak that in without upsetting the landlord.
