Engine knock video added

[kidwilson33]

Hi,
I started my car and everything was fine. THen all of a sudden it died on me. I tried starting a few times and then it did this. Anybody have any ideas? Also I smell gasoline and there is actually some gas in a puddle in front of the car.
Here is the you tube video

need a better video, but my question is, how hard do you drive your car?
where do you hear the knock? (head, block, etc.)
what were you doing before it started to knock?

it sounds like you tried to start the car after it was already running to me.

you sure it's gas infront of the car?

You probably shoundn't have tried to start it after it died... it kinda sounds like your starter is hitting the teeth, but that wouldn't make your car stall out... Check your t-belt and make sure it's still in once piece

Srry I could not take a longer video. The car does not start and the noise and grinding was terrible. I had a guy come out and look at it and there is Gas in my engine and everywhere, I mean everywhere. He said that possibly replacing the bearings might save her but he is not sure. Just thought I would update the situation. I am so screwed.

Is it possible there is a fuel leak somewhere? And because of the leak its preventing fuel from entering the cylinders and thats why its not starting?

But judging by what you're telling us, with the fuel everywhere and all, I'm thinking we aren't going to be able to diagnose your problem over the internet, even if you can get a better vid. Best take it to a Honda/Acura specialist to check it out.
