Car stalls

You nailed it the CV axle on the drivers side has shot I got new one for $76.00 all fixed! I love this site.

1988 honda prelude 2.0s sohc
car starts and idles, but when I go to drive down the street I only get half a mile before it dies, then I have to recharge the battery and after a few hours it start up again and I drive and it does same thing, what could my problem be?

I pulled my 3 pin alt and put a 4 pin alt in from an 89 lude and cut wires and spliced and color coded, they are both obd 0 as far as I know so I think ill be fine leaving the extra 4th wire capped. But it still wont start

The harness wires is what I spliced and coded

Engine Performance problem
1987 Honda Prelude 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual lots miles

my friend just bought this prelude with dual carbs 2 days ago. Without asking anyone he dumped half of a bottle of white bottled STp brand carb and injector cleaner in the gas tank with half a tank offuel.
Car will fire up and rev up if you flor it from start butthen it dies right away. Definitly sounds like a fuel problem.
I took off the secondary fuel filter and it wasnt clogged but the fuel tht pumps thro the lines isnt clear its more like old applejuice thts been sitting in a cup. Still smells like octane but its got tht weird STp oily smell. Is the honda tht finicky tht is wont run on tht fuel or did he wreck the carbs or sumthing. I need help its gotta run. Thank you

After taking the main lead off the coil to the distributor it watching the sparks arc ( had a ball in the dark ) I checked the spark plugs to make sure they were good. I need some good news here. Ive been told tht unless youve worked for Honda for 14 years you shouldnt be taking apart dual carbs for " cleaning " I still dont know for sure what all else to check. Could anyone give me a list of stuff.

Is the stalling just from alt or could it be map sensor or my carb or choke, I think my car is carbed

The car has good gas, the gas it getting through the secondary filter. My question is what should I do to this car. The Honda dealership says it could be a oxygen sensor or an ignition fuse? LORDCO told my friend it could be the starter. Its not my car and im decently mechanically inclined ive tryed everything even hooked a OUTBOARd gas tank with fresh fuel to the inlet on the carb and tryed my own manual like 10 -15 psi of pressure with the squeezebulb. What is wrong with the honda. She turns over strong has an amazing bright blue spark, fires up if you hold the ignition on while shes firing. It will rev up to about 4krpm when you hold the gas peddle down and then it dies. Car wont idle or stay running at all. What should I do

I havnt gone and checked the chokes if there slammed shut but how would I go about seeing if the inlet needle in the carb is stuck. Where do I start diagnosing from here. Can I tear these carbs half apart while there still in the car. Im being told so many different things from a bunch of "mechanics"

What do I do im not a honda mechanic I hate carburators

My prelude runs and cranks fine but stutters and cuts off at 4,000rpm.

But its cold now and I dont know what else to check. Mechanics have been telling my friend to check sensors because the car starts up and wont run.

I now have checked everything that I possibly can with my knowledge of mechanics . Fuel, spark, compression, vacuum. I brought the car to a shop and there looking at it tomorrow morning. Holy moly I couldn't find what I needed online for this car unlike any other Vehicle that I've ever worked on can anyone give me an idea on how to clean the carbs. Will I have to sync them again.
