Well you have to see what codes you are throwing. Then move on from there. Do you know how to check to see if your car is throwing a code?

I'm working on an accord and that same thing is happening to it right now.... along with that it is dumping ridiculious amounts of fuel when trying to start it (it won't start cuz of it).

one or more of your injector drivers on the ecus sound to be burned out. pop open the ECU and look in the upper/left corner for 3 inline transistors

If that happens, it'll still run but it'll sputter pretty bad, like it's missing. But if those fuel injectors transistors burn up, it's normally a pretty easy fix. We've been able to fix a couple of P72s, one P13, and a few P28s with the burned up FI transistors.
