Soemone Told Me It Could Be The Fuel Pump Well I Replace That Today And It Is Still Doing It,, Someone Please Help I Need My Car Fixed... What Could Be The Problem?

Are you sure your battery is good (fully charged)? Make sure battery terminals and connections are clean.

Yes I know that the battery is good and charged because the lights come on and the radio turns on and everything!! So yeah... I looked at that... the car just will not turn over it will start like it want to but can't there's like somehting stopping it?

Does the starter motor turn the engine over?

I really don't know... I know that I left it at work for 3 days and it started then died... and then I started it again it stayed started so I could drive it home... but I really think it was the fuel pump because obiously there wasn't no gas getting to the engine to start... you knoe... but my b/f drove the car to wrk after I put the new fuel pump in now it won't turn over?? I don't knoe hmm
Confused?

If the battery is good and the engine doesn't turn over, you may have a bad starter motor. This may help you:

Really... hmmm well when I turn the key it will go kkkkkkkkk I don't know if you know what that noise is but and then it won't start... do you really think it is the starter how much is one of them and is it hard to put in?

From your description, I think you are telling me the starter motor does "crank" the engine. Therefore, I'm not sure if I can really help you.

Well now I am being told it could be a relay...
I mean because they are saying it is turning over it isn't starting... so they said it can't be the starteR if when you turn the key the belts are moving and stuff... could it be the relay?

If you know someone who's knowledgeable about cars, have them read sections A and B below. There's enough information there that they should be able to identify and correct what's wrong.

Well no my b/f just broght the car home and now it is starting is it the starter slowly going out?

Hard to tell from afar. It may be the starter or even unclean cable connections.

Sir I am no pro but been into hondas for years and to me it sounds like fuel pump relay possibly. It is buried way up in the dash above where your Hood release handle is. It's a 2"x3" box that says Matusaba and I think your fixed. Honda's are driven buy numerous relays and I have had a similar problem to yours:cool: :cool:
