    Car wont move

    i tried to move my car today but i start the car, put it in reverse (and 1st) but it wont move, the whole car just lifts up! I dont know if the it is the ebrake or what. When i pull on the ebrake it makes 8 clicks and the left side of the two cables pulls up farther then the right like its just dragging the right side up with it. If i dont get it fixed my car will be towed off the street tomorrow. Please help as soon as possible! its an 87 honda accord efi. The tranny shifts and everything fine so i have that ruled out, it just pulls the whole car like the wheels are locked

    sounds like your ebrake is stuck somehow. take off the back wheel(s) and locate the ebrake cable and see if its jamed up or something.. If you put it in gear, will it drag the back wheels?? not the BEST way to tell, but its one way you could do it.

    brake problem for sure..... I'd get some liquid wrench and start pulling the rear wheels off like caleb said. The car lifting up means the fronts are fine but the rear is locked. I'd focus on the ebrake cables. download pauls manual if you need more info
