you should check your vacuum lines for any leaks or damage on the lines. how long has it been since the car got a tune-up? it could be a basic repair so i start with the basic first . a clogged fuel filter maybe.

 

ok and i guess its been awhile and i was thinkin the fuel pump is goin out some days its fine and some days it has it moments ya kno thanks for the advise tho ill check it out here in a few

 

The Fuel Filter is a possibility. Have a friend turn the key to the on position while you listen for the "click" of the pump. Start simple and look for Bad Plug wires, a worn fuel pump wire, Backprobe the fuel pump connector. should get battery voltage(roughly 12 volts) Check your plugs make sure the electrodes are good. Check your thermostat. Hope this helps.

 

car had a problem over heatin so the thermostat is outta ? and as long since i had the car you could never hear the fuel pump click but ill check it out thanks

 

youll have a better chance of hearing the main relay turn on... or you can loosen the fuel filter line and prime the car to see if theres fuel pressure at the line...

 

cool its runnin fine now...its bout to have an 88 crx si trans in it is that gonna wake it up any???
