I have a 2002 Civic LX. 1.7 litre bought the car and they guy said it needed a fuel pump that it would run for a little bit shut off and take 20-30 minutes to crank back up. I never asked questions I just pulled it home and changed the pump and everything seemed great no cel or anything. Well later that night I was driving and the engine light came on and it threw itself into limp mode or safety mode whatever it's called on a Honda so I pulled over **** it off popped the hood and the exhaust manifold was glowing red like really red. I let it.cool off and it drive home no problem engine light went off and everything. I took the manifold off and gutted the converter put it back on and to my surprise in did it again but this time it didn't glowing as bright. Anyways I pulled the codes and it's pulling p0171 and p0118 the car seems like it's flooding itself with gas I may cranl it and it be perfect then turn it off and it won't crank and I'll have to pull the fuse for the fuel system whine the starter for a minute put the fuse back hold the throttle about 80% while cranking and it'll normally crank back up I don't have alot of money to go have the dealership or shop fix it I'm capable of fixing it if I can get a good diagnosis by opinion so any help would be great so thanks in advance

So you have a too lean bank 1 code and a coolant overheat code. I suspect the overheat happened when your manifold took a **** and lit itself up. I tend to agree with your too rich diagnosis, seems like it might be the upstream 02 sensor that is reading incorrectly and telling the ecu to supply too much fuel.

Replace the primary O2 sensor and check the Engine Coolant Temp sensor and its circuit. Use only OEM Honda or Denso O2 sensors.
