I think it has something to do with electric to the pump or ground because I recently dropped the tank ground snapped right off so we wire brushed it and put back together with new pump drove for a couple days it was perfect but now problem is back

there is no check engine light? have to actually checked it???????? YOU JUMPED THE PLUG AND GOT NO CODES RIGHT? are you assuming it doesn't have codes because the light doesn't stay on when you turn the key on? theres a thread on here about 1 week old we kept asking if there was codes he kept saying no codes, no codes, no codes, he jumped the plug and guess what???? he got codes. he thought the light should of stayed on or he think it should of been on before the car died. the thing is his car died the check engine light came on right as the car died. and when a honda dies the check engine light turns on and stays on, no matter what you do if it dies it stays on. turn the key the check engine light turns on and off after a few seconds so he thought nothing of it. he got 3 codes after i had him jump the plug

If it was doing it before you replaced the fuel pump, and it's now doing it after you replaced the fuel pump, what is it going to take before you realize it has nothing to do with the fuel pump ?

Not to argue or anything, but he didn't specify it happened before he replaced the pump, only after...which should have been the first thing he checked if it started after instead of just throwing parts at it, especially since it's intermittent like an electrical issue or loose connection. Just a lot of details we're missing

He said the problem was back which would imply it was doing it before he replaced the fuel pump.

Ok I reread it and it makes sense now, I wasn't trying to argue and I apologize if it seemed that way, I'm just trying to help this guy out
