ok so i think my main relay is bad on my hatch. my brother purchased one today and of course there are 3 different relays to chose from. he bought the biggest one. can anybody tell me which relay would control the fuel pump. i have looked in my haynes manual and have done some reading but have not got a specific location yet. would someone please shed some light on this for me like where it is and how to make sure we have the right one. the fuel pump does not prime and the symptoms leading up to this seems like the relay to me. any help would be appreciated.

oh its a pain in the ass to remove too HAHA.

Try banging on the dash when it doesnt want to start, where the relay is located, itll usually work :)

actually we got it off and it's running like a champ. it's the relay held on by a 10MM bolt. it has the classic honda relay going bad for a few months so i knew it wasn't the fuel pump. next up putting a passenger seat in it. i have some del sol seats, 91 civic wagon seats(same car the motoe came out of) and some rsx-s seats with a bent frame.

i always wondered why it would easily start after punching the dash. lol j/k thanks guys.
