i have a 91 accord wagon. yesterday i tried started it for the first time in a week. it started and ran for about 5 seconds and suddenly died. when i tried restarting it, it would'nt start. sometimes it would but only for a half a second. i figured it was because of the cold weather we had but i tried again tonite because it was a little warmer and when i tried it let let out a big misfire and scared the living sh*t outta me. it sounded like it was underneath of the middle of the car. does anyone have any ideas as of what this could be?

 

someone please help!!!

 

When you start the car listen near the back seat and see if you fuel pump is priming up. (whirrrriinnggg noise) If it is, check for spark next. It will probably be one or the other...

 

fuel pumps make the whirrrrr noise so im gonna go check the spark in a little bit. thanks
