    Default civic gas problem..

    hey i'm having some problems with my civic right now...recently it doesn't want to pump gas anymore..so i change the fuel pump and it ran for like a day...but now when i turn it on it shuts off....sometimes i can hear it pumping but the majority of the time it doesn't pump....
    i'm thinking its the ecu or some wires because when i unplug and plug the ecu it pumps right after....

    please help... need it running again

    Check your grounds and fuses, underneath the hood

    When you turn the key to the ON position, the pump will only stay on for about 2-5 seconds. It will automatically turn off if you do not attempt to start it right up. If you are attempting to start it and still wont fire, check to make sure you are getting fuel to your fuel rail.

    Could be something as easy as your fuel filter.
