Am I right i thinking that you turn the key, the engine starts, but then when you turn the key back the engine turns off again and doesn't stay going?

If this is the case then it sounds like you have a worn out ignition switch. Not a particularly difficult or expensive fix. $45 will get you the switch and if you're savvy you can replace it yourself. A mechanic would take about an hour.

For you to check if it is the fuel pump, see if there is fuel running out of the hose if you remove the fuel filter. Another is to directly connect the pump to the battery. If the pump works that way, then it could be a efi relay issue which is found underneath the dash or a wiring issue.

I have an 1990 Acura Integra, that I thought the fuel pump was going out on, because when I tapped on the fuel tank it would fire right up. Now it wont fire at all and only like (1) plug is getting fire....

do it yourself to save money, get your pump out and buy a new one and replace, its quite simple, but make sure that u clean that tank really good (is very good oportunity to do this, since ur car is 1990), replace the filter that u are going to find on the pump and the other fuel filter, just follow the fuel lines to the engine and ull find it., the access to your fuel pump should be below your backseat, have fun!
i hope this helps

My 1990 acura integra wants to start but won't turn over. A couple of times it has started then dies. I'd keep trying to start it until it finally turns over and starts without dying. Could the fuel filter...

It's hard to know whether or not this is a fuel issue or a spark issue. Here is where I'd start:

Have a mechanic check your fuel pressure to make sure you're getting fuel. An intermittent starting issue could point to a clogged fuel filter. This would be more likely than the pump.

With the age of the car, a faulty main relay could also be the culprit. They are notoriously bad on Acuras of that age. The solder joints break and they will work one minute and not allow the car to start the next. (starter will turn the engine over but not "catch")

If this problem happens more often when the weather is hot or cold, it points toward the main relay. Good luck.

My 91 acura integra with a 95 gsr motor in it starts, then dies right away. I replaced the spark plugs, checked for spark through the wires, and checked to see if fuel was coming from the pump. Everything...

did you check the fuel pressur on the fuel rail with a gauge or did you just unplug the pressure reg..

also you should try replacing the fuel filter first... this is cheap 6-12 dollars autozone. just becuase the fuel pump is pumping doesnt mean it its enough. There mightbe a strainer on the fuel pump that might be plugged.

Runs 5 minutes then dies. Won't start until engine is cold.

Try the WD-40 spray in intake of throttle body with air intake hose off, to see if it will kick at all, even for a second or 2. We need to confirm whether your losing fuel or spark when it dies. Ignition & fuel, can cause similar symptoms in this case.
