I did some searching...and found out some of this...

1) Check fuel pump...if it primes then the main relay may be bad...
2) Replace fuel filter
3) Crank with throttle open, possibly flooded
4) Jump start or Push start

Any thing else would be awesome...im thinking maybe its my main relay...where is this located? 1991 acura integra gs....and how much do these cost? is this a dealership item only...or does autozone and napa carry them?!

You'll know if fuel is going in there. You can smell it. Take a plug wire out and hold it to one of your acorn nuts on your valve cover and see if its throwing spark. It will jump, probably not much if its a stock ignition but you should be able to hear or see if its sparking.
