First, check all of your connections at the starter. Next try checking your spark plugs. If the spark plugs are soaked in gasoline, then try cleaning them up.Then, if that dont work, try getting another starter from a wrecking yard (that is the cheaper way.)

SOURCE: blowing white smoke when reved up.... boggs a

White smoke is usually caused by a cracked head gasket or cracked head, but some times it is caused by your brake booster sucking brake fluid into the intake through the vacuum hose. If your brakes are constantly going soft, or your brake reservoir constantly needs refilling then that will be your problem. Replacement will include both the brake booster and the master cylinder.

If the cause is a leaking head, you can fix it with sodium silicate (liquid Glass) which can be purchased in most pharmacies. You will need to remove your thermostat to keep it from sticking shut before doing this. Replace it after the smoke is gone.

Remember that the sodium silicate trick is more of a bandaid than a permanent fix. Also remember that sodium silicate is not a good fix for steel heads, and since yours is aluminum it should work.

BUT since your problem only occurs as you accelerate, I would suspect the brake booster and master cylinder.

hint use a scan tool see live data........?????

I have a 99 civic 4 door and the engine surges at idle

hot engine or cold, or both???????????????????
surging or hunting idle is complex but for sure the ECU has lost control of idle speed , there are 2 macro reasons, (vast causes)
1: ISC is stuck (in non SAE terms, the idle speed control valve ) is stuck.
2: engine is missing cause the ISC to GO NUTS trying to control
idle and can not.. the 50 reasons, , have list ask.
we do tests to find out if either or both the above are bad.
do you want tests, or guessing>???

Have 1988 honda civic that is surgeing while in park

The surging is related to your Idle Air Control Valve (IACV), it adjusts idle based on coolant temperature, your coolant could be low or your IACV could be bad.
