sounds like if your giving it gas an the rpm's just rev and the car doesnt go anywhere you have succesfully burned the **** out of your clutch and need a replacement.. or you have a clogged fuel filter.. either or..

It's a Honda haha. That's your problem...

Sounds like you're on the right track though, it sounds to me like a fueling issue. Obviously somewhere between the fuel pump and injectors...

might try looking in the fuel tank..? where else would it be? lol just messin. In an ef, you have to completely lower the tank to get to the pump. The access port under the rear seat (if you have one) just gives you access to the top connector for the sending unit.
