Why won't it go!

Maintenance/Repairs

My car will turn over but as soon as I take the key back and start trying to go, it just dies, despite my foot down on the gas or the car in gear. Yes it has gas, it is a standard and it is a 1984 honda civic hatchback. Is there anyone who knows what is wrong?

Possibly a bad ignition switch. They are not that hard to replace. You don’t have to replace the lock cylinder, just the switch.
