is a bone stock honda accord F22A1, I let it sit around while I was moving into my new place, went back to my old home and picked it up. The alternator went bad from sitting or was already on it's way out so I replaced it with one from the U-Pull-it, fixed that problem. Ran out of gas driving home. I don't have a gas station close to my new house so I grabbed the nearest can and poured it onto the ground to check if it was mixed gas. It was But I put it in anyhow to get me to the gas station, I didn't have any problems like this at all until I decided to put the 2-stroke gas into the car. The car does not start, it will half-*** fire up if I squirt 2+2 into the throttle body so it's getting spark. fuel is getting to the rail so the pump works, I replaced the fuel injectors thinking it might have clogged the stock injectors up(it was a long shot) no good. Same symptoms, here's what i have been noticing......

the car always had a problem with the ignition switch, if i wiggle it my radio and AC would come on and off. I think the contacts in the ignition switch are dirty, gonna confirm it now see but is their anything else I should be looking for? the thing I don't get is why did the car just alll of the sudden die like this and not start? I seriously don't think the 2-stroke had anything to do with it but who know. What else could be causing me not to get fuel? I'm gonna hook up some 'noids' to the fuel injectors to see if they are firing. If anyone can throw me some ideas they would be greatly appreciated!

Forgot to mention I also replaced the plugs in case they fouled from the oil but it did nothing.

it's not the starter harness, my next guess is main relay startin to die on me, were is it located at on this model car? I wanna crack it open and inspect it before I spend money i don't even have.

ok, my dad never came through on getting me the noids so I could be sure the injectors are firing, It just me workin on the car so I can't hook up a voltmeter and crank at the same time watch the meter. the reason I think it could be the fuel pump is SOMETIMES when I turn the ignition on I heaar the pump prime and CEL goes off like normal and if I keep turning the ignition on-off-on-etc, their are times when it's just a SOLID CEL no fuel pump priming, I'm stumped I need to get this car running before i'm completely blind, at least I have a chance of selling it if it runs. were is the main relay at on the 91 accord auto? I looked under the drivers kickpanel and under the dash, I don't wanna pull apart the wrong relay and i seen a couple boxes that It could be. i'm a CRX guy so maybe it's not even the relay? Why else would the car not be getting fuel? yet it's in the rail if I crack open the bleeder screw on the rail, the fuel shoots out when I turn the ignition on! wouldn't the ECU throw a code of some kind? possibly dead ECU?

How about starting with the year and model of the accord, then cut out the life story stuff, and bring it down to some cliff notes. Injectors are rarely a problem on these cars, you are getting spark, the next thing is to see if there is pressure on the fuel rail, by cracking the fitting a little after turning on the key. have you ever added more real Gas into the car or are you still trying to run the 2 stroke fuel?

sorry, It's in my cig what model i thought people could tell it's the only accord in my cig..
1991 Honda accord, not sure of the trim, think it's LX or EX. It's an F22A1
Anyways I did crack the bolt on the rail and it's getting pressure, plenty of it, it just don't seem to be firing the injectors. I spray 2+2 into the TB and it fires right up. the engine dies right out. I added about 5 gallons to the mix and switched the ignition on-off the circualate the old fuel out of the rail. it's all good their. I'm thinking it could be the ECU but would it just die out of no were like that? I pulled the ecu and checked for burnt out chips but everything seems fine. I have not checked the main relay since i'm doubt it could be that anymore since fuel does prime.

Any suggestions?
