Icon2 93 honda civic SI D15B problems!!!

I got a Honda Civic 93 Si With a D15B. Cell code 16... car takes a while to start, cranks then starts. once it manages to stay on, i'll start to drive, then gas pedal will loose power, gas pedal is all the way to the ground. pretty much floored. then the car jerks, goes and starts again to loose power. Drop it down one gear, then it will run again. Will run again for a couple of seconds... Again the pedal is all the way to the floor, like if i ran out of gas, then seems like it gets back gas goes then stalls.. need help.

Most people just recommend resoldering as buying a new main relay is more expensive.

Did this problem just occur out of the blue or is this a new build and you havent had it going at all yet. Maybe a bad fuel pump relay? Bad ecu ground? Its gonna be trial an error fix.

With the key in ON(II), do the Yel/Blk wires in all 4 fuel injector clips have battery voltage?

I would install a fpr. Sounds like your fuel pump might have taken a **** on you. While they normally just go out its not unheard of for them to kinda putter along for day or 2. Try taking a rubber mallet and hitting the gas tank a couple times and see if it starts right up. If it does then its 99% your fuel pump.

Neither a bad fuel pump nor a bad FPR would throw code 16.

Measure voltage at each injector clip.
