    1988 honda civic acts like its not getting fuel.
    My Honda civic acts like its not getting fuel when driving above third gear. When this happens there is a buzzing noise under the dash. What is causing this? Is it a short or is my fuel pump going out?

    . Check for codes.

    . Check/replace the main relay.
