fuse box under hood checked out A-OK.... no blown fuses... why is Toysport a bad idea to order from, if i may... once again... new to area... dont know about good local shops.

any other ideas for the fuel pump issue?
dont know if it would be there... but i am going to check the fuse box under dash now...

the motor WILL turn over... and when i turn the key i can hear is the clicking under the dash on the left hand side... BUT the Injectors wont spray... i checked the resistor box... all wires are connected... box is grounded correctly... the car just sounds like a car trying to start with NO GAS (450 cc injectors DSM Blue tops)

the day the issue started the car was driving and seemed to progressively start dieing... till it got weaker and weaker and just shut off on the freeway... we tryed to jump the car, still, no luck.

i have not had a chance to change the fuel pump and i dyno'd the car on the stock fuel pump... 4 days later it dies... think i put too much of a load on the stock fuel pump? *(held max 200 whp) dyno stoped cause fuel pump could not keep up with demands...

nothing wrong with toysport i have known them for many many years....
just thought they would have bumped the $ up on the pump.. you can get those are about $80-90 if you shop around....

could be the starter relay or in fact teh pump.. it wont hurt to change out the pump tho....

ouch... well in that area... ummm oh wait toysport moved.... they are off inglewood ave by the in-n-out now right? they used to be on El segundo......

u could get a used pump to see if that fixes your problem from the junkyard or Milans in wilmington which is a honda only junkyard too... if it fixes it then go ahead and fork out the $ for a nice new one

i can hear the pump priming... does that mean the pump is bad or is there a different issue?

where is the STARTER RELAY... starter relay and Main Relay are different correct? if the main relay was bad, the car wouldn't even prime....is that true? but IF the starter relay was bad... how would that stop the car while driving on the freeway and cause it to progressively get weaker and weaker till no fuel is flowing... the starter relay is ONLY for the START UP of the car *(correct?) and so is the Main Relay... meaning that.... something else killed the car WHILE it was MOVING and requiring fuel...

IF anyone lives in this area... i would gladly pay for your time or ie... a full gas tank to help solve this issue... LMK
I also have a lightend racing pully BRAND NEW i was going to install.... i can give that up as well...
please help.

ps.
its NOT the ecu....ecu is BRAND NEW + Hondata s300 and both check out fine as well as their fuses

here is the update...
the KEYWAY that holds the pully in place some how got torn up... the crankshaft is now trash and has to be replaced... the reason i wasnt getting any spark is because the cams / timing belt were not spinning... i will most likely need a valve job as well...

now im looking for another b20 bottom end over at Hmotorsonline to get swapped in asap... i will not be rebuilding this bottomend because i will be selling the car... so pretty much i will be putting a bone stock B20 and hooking up the t3/t4 turbo to it... no pistons...no rods... just a new head gasket and a block guard... i will be making a new thread to find out what this set up should be safe for boost wise...im tired of all these issues, i will be selling the car soon after... this is a horrible day and it seems like **** just keeps getting worse with this car...
