fuel pump dead?
 

k, went for a drive was about 20mins on the freeway i stop and turn off the car for about 3mins. come back out and start the car, fires up fine sputters a second, so i give it a little gas, it thinks it recovers and stalls out. give it another crank doesnt want to start. i chill for a minute or too. and i turn the key i hear the fuel pump prime and it starts fine, revs up good, and drove fine the hole way home (then threw a CEL 1 and 17, which have nothing to do with the fuel pump).
so whats up?? thanks

my engine does suck, but it did this on the ZC too.

***something new, it did it again. but this time i was hearing the fuel pump buzz (priming it) BUT it seemed louder and went on for a looong time :-\

my 02 senser is gay, its been throwing a code about one every month or two ::)

the CEL came on when i was on the freeway, i was doing 70..umm i mean 60...so yes the the speedo was working (maybe i didnt reset the ecu last time?)

dropping the tank sounds like a big pain in the ass, i will probly do it next weekend (just filled my tank...oops)

check your distibutor, I had the same problem. At first I thought it was my fuel pump, too. I install a new fuel pump, but no change. I put in my bro's crx's distributor and it fire rite up......

i did it ;D fucker is loud! i can even here is whining while im driving, thats ok though i still have my sub i will just turn up the music. it really wasnt that hard to put in at all, everyone makes it seem harder... (had a good 5 gallons of gas in there too)

anyway my car seems to run better (only about 5mins of driving so far), lot smoother. but i still get a hesatation at about ~4000rpms which i think is about where i hit 10psi, so MAP sensor maybe? (yes Jeff i do have a 2 BAR its going in tomarrow morning)
