| okay, i had another posting.. went to the shop and they said to bring it in for a diagnostic.
the thing is that it only has starting problems some of the time... some days it starts fine.. others i have to crank it.. the engine turns and doesn't turn over for a good 6 min.. sometimes it will die right after and i repeat.. hit the gas a little and it stays.. what could it be?

Sounds like the main relay. Goto www.tegger.com to identify your relay and
diagnose the problem.
They can often be repaired by some resoldering.

As 'remco' says, probably the main relay (see his link). It is rare for fuel
pumps to become intermittent - they normally work until they fail
completely. I suppose they could work intermittently, but I've never seen
it.

okay, so i just went to napa and can someone tell me if these guys are trying to rip me off or help me. i asked about the price of a new main relay and the guy behind the counter (who wanted me to bring in my car next week for his mechanic) said that if it were the main relay, the car wouldn't start at all. is this true? i was reading that it can just be the soldering... and i believe the problem can be intermediate... does anyone know for sure? i don't want to pay a mechanic to look at it.. i don't have the means to. HELP!  >> Stay informed about: fuel pump bad? integra 91 |
