Default please help!! my car isn't starting!!

ok i have a 94 accord ex with I/H/E, crane cam ignition w/ ps92 coil, magnacore wires, and the v-force.

in the past the v-force messed up my ecu so i had to reset it in order for my car to work. also before my coil had a loose wire so my car didn't start... all those past time my car cranks but no start.

this time i tried everything..reset the ecu...i threw out the v-force.. and checked all the wires to the ignition...what makes a car start?? does anybody know what the problem is?? first time i started the car today then a second later it just died and never started again...it feels like it wants to start but seems like not enough spark or something to fire it up!.. please help thanks.

Check your fuses, you said you had to reset the ECU, try checking around the fusebox, just my 2 cents

turn the ignition key with out actually starting the engine and hear for some humming sound in the back. if there isnt then you may have a faulty fuel pump. there are many factors to consider why your car is not starting and this is one of them.
