97 civic dies while running?
My 97 civic has been running fine up until today. I started my car and while I was letting it warm up, (about 5 minutes approximately) it died. So I started it up again and it ran fine. As I was backing up down the driveway to leave somewhere, I got to the stoplight by my house and just as I slowed down for the red light it died again. After that it was a pain to get started again, but I finally did after about 20 minutes and I was able to get it home. I sat in the driveway letting it idle for a couple minutes and it died. Any help would be much appreciated?

These are problematic components on Hondas. Here's how to do it yourself: https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/cars-t...tml#post265896 If the problem persists, replace the main relay, which is located to the right of glove box, along the wall of the kick panel. I normally recommend replacing all three of these items every 120,000 miles or 10 years, whichever comes first. This helps restore "like new" reliability and performance. Also, replace the fuel filter, if it hasn't been done in the last 4 years or 60,000 miles. Here's how: https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/cars-t...tml#post224689 |
