PUSHING CAR OFF CLIFF
 
ok well after swapping in a puny sohc motor last weekend, the car would run great but if i tried reving past 4k it would bog then be ok and bog again.

it started getting worst. then i couldnt rev past 3k and teh car would misfire. the tach was all over the place. i figured it might be the ignitor or coil going bad so i swaped them with the dizzy from my dohc motor in to the dizzy from the sohc. same issue. tach was still all over theplace. i would cruising at 2500rpms and the needle would be bouncing everywhere then the car would start to stutter.

well on friday it started doing it again so i gavve it gas and then the car reved all the way to about 5k and then died.

now i dont even get a ecu light and i dont hear the fuel pump. my afc wont turnn on either. the car will turn over.

other electrical components do work like the windows and radio.

i changed out the main relay and same ish. no blown fuses. i tried a different ecu same ish.

now im thinking i may have had some type of currentt overload that was making my tach go nuts and mess with my dizzy. and when i managed to rev it to 5k it blew something. but what?

help me :'( im tired of fixing crap. i just want to enjoy my dam boost.

when i had issues very similar, there were shorted wires inside the engine harness itself.

changed the engine harness...blam! good as new.

what year accord? Did you bolt the wire harness ground to the intake manifold or the stat housing? That ground is CRITICAL

i might have an engine harness around here, but i dont think its complete, it might have a few wires cut on it... im not sure if that helps you
