I have a 92 civic hatch with an Ls Vtec turbo it was tuned by Courtney Green the car will sometimes start and when it doesn't I have to roll start it it will always roll start evertime, and when it doesn't there is a humming noise coming from behind the engine by the firewall? I am very confussed any help would be great Thanks :x

- Fri Jan 08, 2010 2:56 pm #166767 when you are starting it on a roll, do you get it rolling and then turn the key and it then starts like it should, or are you getting it rolling & putting it in 1st gear and dumping the clutch with the key turned on the second position to 'jump start' it?

or is the engine flooded?
