    Why won't my del sol run
    HI there,

    I have a 93 Honda Del Sol and as I was driving it, every time I went to hit the gas it would stall... (almost like it was running out of gas). It would idle fine. I pulled over and it continued to start up a few times quickly dying again when I hit the gas. Now it won't start at all. The engine turns like it wants to start it just won't click over. Please Help! I know nothing about cars and with a baby coming in 2 months, I really can't afford to have it towed all around town only to get ripped off which seems to happen every time.

    Thanks

    Before doing anything else, try replacing the fuel filter:

    If that doesn't solve the problem, read sections A and B below:

    Running through the basic diagnostic steps should help you pinpoint the problem. Igniters, coils, and main relays are problematic components on Hondas.

    it would help if you check all your honda del sol performance parts to see what's wrong and if parts needs a replacement. check the fuel filters, fuel pump, sparks, battery and starter. keep us posted regarding this problem. good luck
