| | | wont stay running
I have a 91 crx it sat up since may and I just put a d15b vtec in this past weekend. I sat the engine in and hooked up all appropriate connectors with the exception of two wires that is close to the intake manifold (yellow w/ green and a black) I have no clue where they go all i know is if you connect the wires together the main relay closes. But when I go to start the car you can hear the fuel pump kick in, the cel comes on for approx 2 sec then secures. The engine turns over and attempts to start and will fire for about 3-5 sec then stops firing and back to turning over. I replaced the spark plugs/wires, checked dist, replaced the map sensor and idle control valve. Im stumped can someone help

| There is a YEL/GRN that goes to main relay terminal 7, which provides power to the fuel pump. Remove your main relay and see if someone pulled that wire from the connector. The BLK wire probably was pulled from main relay terminal 2, which is a ground. These wires were either pulled from the main relay connector or were cut off from wires in the main harness.
Are you sure these two wires belong on the engine side of the firewall?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
It looks like both of these wires go to the fuel pump. The fuel pump has a BLK wire (-) and a YEL/GRN (+) wire going to a 2P connector. | |
