Default 96 acoord lx intermittent starting

Hello all.

A few months ago I started having an intermittent starting issue on my accord. I assumed it was the fuel pump relay as it wasn't priming consistently. I finally got tired of waiting on it to kick in and replaced it with a brand new one a few weeks ago. Unfortunately that hasn't solved the problem, if anything it has gotten progressively worse. If I apply ground directly to the relay, I hear the fuel pump run but it still won't start. I've checked the injectors for power and they have power, not sure if they pulse when cranking. Any thoughts as to where to look next? Thanks for any help.

Have you checked the main relay? It's located under the dash right below the steering column. It's tucked up in there. Usually the stock one is grey with a red bottom (if i remember correctly). Check to make sure that thing clicks when the key is turned to the on position.
