My 91 honda accord has been dieing on me while im driving. It acts kinda like its out of gas, then starts back up after a minute. So, I changed the fuel filter because I thought it might be clogged. Now my car will start and run for a few seconds then it dies or it dies if you try to hit the gas.
After having it occur on two separate vehicles, focus on the entire throttle body; with key interest in the throttle position sensor.
Perhaps try a fuel pressure tester to see if it's holding steady pressure when this occurs. This sounds like the symptoms of a failing pump however, don't just change the pump. Confirm it by monitoring the pressure. I've seen some guys tape the pressure gauge to the windshield so they can see it.

Check the distributor by letting the car run and tug on the wiring and see if the car acts up. Under the thermostat housing is a wiring harness, I've seen coolant drip on the connector of the O2 sensor and cause this problem too. The main relay is the switch you're referring to. It's located under the dash of the driver's side to the left. I've definitely seen these go bad. Use a test light on the hot wire to the fuel pump. Have an assistant turn the key in the "on" position and see if you have power there. Let me know what you found out so I can hopefully give you more things to check out. Send me emails to [email protected].

This vehicle from personal experience definitely has a problem with the MAIN relay that's located under the dash are right above the brake pedal. Its a brown box with a plug in it. I believe that's the problem its less than 100 dollars from the dealer its control the spark and the fuel on this car. Good Luck. Contact if you need more help. Thanks for using FIX YA

pull one of the plugs out leave the plug wire on it and rest it on something metal on the car and have someone try to turn it over.if no spark can be seen try changing your crankshaft sensor
