why wont you start
Hey everyone, I seem to be having a starting problem AGAIN, So every morning when I go to start my honda it will not start unless I push the gas peddle all the way down but after that im good to go. I am at a loss as to what could be the issue, to start with in the last 6 months I have put a new 02 sensor, radiator with hoses, alternator with belts, throttle body with sensors, and a fuel pump and filter. it seems as though no matter what I do I can't seem to figure out what the issue is. the only thing I can think of is a fuel leak somewhere but I am not even sure where to being looking for a leak at??? does anyone have any suggestions? I did today get an engine light coded p0171 the its the only code it has pulled.

a p0171 means you are running lean. Check your o2 sensors although that may not be the problem i would check else where first. when engine running lean check for hoses and vacuum leaks. clogged injectors or any where in the fuel system that will prevent it from operating properly. yeah i would also check fuel pressure etc. per workshop manual good luck.

So an update As it turns out the rubber seal that goes from the into the air box and goes over the throttle body had a small tear allowing for air to get in though it. I bought a new rubber seal and the issue has been completely fixed starts right up without having to gas it all coeds have gone away
