I posted before, when I was stuck in ohio about my CRX having problems. I just got outta jail (dont ask), and decided to get the car fired up today. With the main relay I had in it, it fired and ran.

I noticed the line coming out of the fuel filter on the firewall was leaking, so I shut it off.

When I went to start it back up, nothing. Has spark, but doesn't get any fuel.

I have the main relay out of my 91 hatchback, put that in, and it fires. Now its fucking up as well though.

Is there by chance a relay I'm not seeing? I know there's one or two more under the dash as well as the main relay. Any help is much appreciated, and reps of course will be given.


Also, is there just a seperate fuel relay i'm not seeing?

Plus, when starting the car cold, it fires very intermittantly under it's own power. After a few seconds, it idles and run's fine. Any idea's as to why it does that?? I'm in desperate need of a running vehicle right now.S

Thanks.

before you go breaking into cars to find a good relay, try jumpering your fuel pump at the relay connector.

If this fixes your problem, then the relay is def. bad.

getting a new relay isn't a problem. I know its bad. I'm asking for other possibilities as well.
