I have a 94 LS integra that wont start. I checked the battery and it is getting power. Lately it has been taking an extra second to turn over when I start it so I was thinking I just needed a tune up. Then I drive it to lunch and when I get off of work it won't start. Now I'm wondering if the fuel pump has died. So my question is which fuel line do I check to see if I'm getting fuel pressure? This is my daily driver and I need to get her fixed. Thanx

you can get a fuel pressure gauge that goes on top of the fuel filter. It will tell you if your getting pressure.

 

Yeah I know. I'm here with a stranded car and I need to figure out what is wrong with it so I was asking how to find a fuel line that will tell me if my fuel pump just died or not.

 

Somebody?

 

You should here the pump when you turn the key to on. If not its bad.

 

Is it trying to crank at all..

 

turn the key to the on position but dont crank. You should hear the fuel pump priming.

 

You can pull a plug wire and use an old spark plug to see if it is throwing a spark. There is a banjo bolt on top of the fuel filter to see if the system is pressurizing with fuel.

 

That's what I did. I pulled the bolt on top of the fuel filter and it was getting fuel. Whe I pulled a plug wire and used aspark plug it wasn't getting any spark. I took the distributor apart and cleaned it and still nothing. Is the distributor wasted or what?

 

Still parked! Gonna try new distributor cap and rotor. Any other Ideas?

 

Its usually just components in the dist., not the whole unit. Coil and ignitor, rotor, cap.

 

I'd check to coil and ignitor
