I have a 91 accord lx. Chassis has 400k on it motor is pushing 100k. I was driving it the other day.

Then when i went wide open throttle it started to stutter a bit. Let off the gas and it wasd fine. I then got to where i was going left the car run and left about 3 minutes later.

I made it a 1/4 mile then the car started to bog. More and more so as i stepped on the throttle. Then it shut off. It would start but only for a couple seconds. Then shut off.

IT would stay running while i had the jey turned the whole way forward but shut off after i let go.

Changed the filter the dist. and the main relay. Now it starts but only for a half a second. I took the fuel line off and there is fuel coming through when i turn the key.

Been searching forever and all results say main relay but it definitely isnt that.

 

ignition switch.....the electrical part is sold separately.
the tip off is that you say the engine runs as you hold the key in 'crank'.
I've limped them into the shop by letting the key back really slow, coming out of 'crank'.
When you remove the lower steering column shroud you usually see one of the solder joints on the back of the switch looks frosty or melted.

 

I will check that today. Thanks for the info.
