1996 accord lx wont start!
hello, everyone!
my accord wont start! it wont turn over. the stereo and lights all work. thought it was the battery at first so i replaced it this weekend. tried to start it and got nothing. CHECK ENGINE light was on for a while and there was a knocking noise on the driver side of the engine which stopped whenever the car stopped or was left to idle before it "met its maker". please help!
