I checked to see if my fuel pump was priming it was and now I need to clean the injectors out, but what do i need to do next, my car will crank but not turn over and Im throwing a code 16 (injectors still) .

91 civic d16a6 MPFI.

I did unplug the battery to make sure it wasn't just throwing a usless code out and it still came up

 

buy a new set of injectors on ebay and go from there...16 is injector either leaking, no power to it or one is bad...has nothing to do with fuel pressure that I know of cause I was down this road not to long ago and it was one bad injector but my car did run just hesitated like crazy...hope this helps

 

I have heard this is a cause of a bad main relay. Sometimes my car will crank and crank and not start and throw code 16, which I have been told is my main relay's fault,

Check for the fuel pump priming the humming sound, that will tell you that its not your main realy, Unless you have that rare occurance where the fuel pump works but the main relay work too, which I have to go check too,

anything else what am i looking for

 

my resistor box acted up and caused similar problems

only tools I was armed with was a fist and alot of profanity, so I beat the hell out of it and it started working.
Only thing I could figure was I had a loose connection, because it hasn't acted up in 3 years
Sorry, I'm not much help. I just got lucky with my fix

Take the injector connector off and measure resistance between the the two terminals.... should be between 1.5-2.5 ohms. If not then injector is bad. Then there is alot more on the flow chart i have for this problem...but start there. Also check the resistor box and the connectors to it.

Yess, now I know for sure I need to replace my main relay.
