Default Need some advice and help

Hey,

After reading through the threads I wasn't able to find what I was looking for.

I own a 2000 honda Accord 4 cylinder coupe.

I am having problems with it starting and then dieing shortly after.

I just replaced the fuel pump and recently replaced the alternator, distributor, and relay.

Does anyone have any more idea's what this may be.

thank you

Any check engine lights?
Other symptoms?
How does it run before it dies?
How fast does it die?
Does it restart after it dies??

Watch Scotty Kilmer's YouTube videos "Fixing a car that cranks but doesn't start up" and "Fixing a Honda that died on the road" Basically it is either the fuel or the spark that is missing. To check the spark, borrow or buy a spark tester - they are cheap at AutoZone and see if you have spark or not at the spark plugs. If you don't have spark, then it may be the spark plug wires. Are you sure the distributor electrical connection is made? If you are getting spark at the spark plugs, then it has to be the fuel. Borrow or buy a fuel pressure tester and see what fuel pressure is actually being delivered. If you have fuel pressure, check the fuel injectors are actually firing as well.
