Bad fuel pump or spark plugs? Car wont start. HELP!
Car:
1994 Acura Integra LS w/ swapped 1998 JDM B18c Type R motor.
After filling up gas one day I attempted to start car and the followjng occured:
- Car would start then start rumbling and and struggle to stay on. It would then cut off. This occured 4 more times. Even if I would put into gear and floor pedal the rpms wouldnt go up but continue to struggle to stay running. Finally after the 5th time to corrected itself and stayed running.
Current Issue:
- Tried to start car this morning and car is turning ovet but wont catch and start running. Also I dont believe I heard the fuel pump kick on when I turned key 3/4th of the way.
Now there is another possibility. I just bought this car from a private seller and he told me he changed the spark plugs before selling it to me. Problem is when I called him about the car not staying running the first time he said he wasn't sure of he gapped them correctly (go figure).
So anyone have any thoughts on what it could be? Also if it is fuel pump would I be buying a fuel pump for a 94 Integra LS or 98 Integra Type R. Let me know if more info is needed. Thanks!

I get ECUs in for repair all the time with a start up failure when the car has been sitting. If the CE light stays on and you can rev over ~3500, it is possibly the ECU.
Hey ya'll. just letting everyone know it ended up being the Main Fuse that blew. Its getting inspected right now cuz they jumped it and got it started somehow. So lets keep fingers crossed theres nothing wrong after inspection.
