Icon2 civc si, poor man's type r

poor mans type r on a 99 civic si. when i turn on the car, the motor turns off like after two seconds. and it wont turn on again unless i pump the pedal; i have to keep giving it gas or else it will turn off. sometimes when im driving normal it turns off too. also when im driving and i put it on neutral it turns off too. what could it be???? help

first...pumping a fuel injected car does nothing. holding it open will do the same thing.

second... it prolly jumped timing. what ever the prob is you shouldnt be driving it until you know for sure. now matter how "poor" it is, its still gonna suck if breaks.
