93 accord automatic wont start! help!

A buddy of mine said the motor might be siezed, I feel the same but wouldn't there be a check engine light 0n?

if the motor was siezed then it wouldnt spin, take off the oil cap and try to start it, have a friend look in and see if the cam spins. if that happens, id bet its either spark or fuel, check for both dont just keep trying to guess

This first part confirms what I suggested you to check for. If the cam spins, then its either spark or fuel. I just recently posted a thread for igniter diagnostic.

Try the Main Relay.

It seems like, to me, you have two issues.
1. Engine died on you on high way.
2. Engine does not crank upon restart.

Check the vid to see if it helps for #2.

This would also be a sign of a snapped timing belt, not just a seized motor.

The belt is fine, still strapped tight. I'm gonna take it in to a mechanic and find out exactly what the problem is. I'm kinda hoping the engine is garbage so I can buy a h22!

Most likely the issue is related to your ignition system. You probably have a coil or igniter that went bad on you...

Man, there are lots of possible ways to check on the problem but if your car stopped at the highway, first thing I would do is to stop cranking the engine it might be snapped timing belt (it happened to my 90 coupe before - I've got broken cam shaft and broken piston valve) the worst scenario when you continue cranking your engine is that the piston valve could be broken (if this is your problem - for sure some of your piston vale were already broken). Check on your timing belt first before you trouble shoot on the other possible problem. Goodluck!
