Hello,
I have a 1195 Acura Integra. I have never had trouble with it before until today. I drove it to the doctors which is about 10 minutes from my home and on the way back home the car just died. It won't start. All I did was try to make a left hand turn and i thought it stalled being it is 5spd.
The car is full oem no modifications at all and all the lights work and power work but it won't start it makes a light fluttering sound when trying to start but does not try to turn over. I checked the terminals and all is fine. What could this be? right now it is stuck on the side of the road a few blocks from my home.

i know for sure your timing belt is broken. but dont be scared your engine is safe. the gsr engine is designed to no be ruined if the timing belt is snapped so all you have to do it set the cams to the correct degree along with the crankshaft to the correct degree and put on a new belt and your good to go. if you dont feel comfortable doing it take it to a shop should not be more than 400
 
Battery is dead, which has likely caused your alternator to die as well.. Get someone to give you a jumpstart if that works, then get a new battery and get your alternator tested, you will likely have to get a new alternator too, but you want to check it first. Good luck.
