So tonight I went to move my car from my street into my drive way and check engine light would reset and my car would just shut off. I did earlier that day take my distributor off to change my heater hose since it was leaking. Is there anything anyone would kno what the problem could be in this situation? To me it seems like. To me it seems like my ecu is restarting and then just shuts off on me.

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956
Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

I was wondering if you are still having your problem. We seem to be having the same symptoms; Where the CEL flashes, reseting the Main relay, which disrupts power to the fuel system, ergo, car dies while driving, or does not start.
If you have not already, I would first check the main relay. It is a very common trouble maker on the 4th and 5th generation accords, (after over 18 years of working fine, not bad). You do not need to buy one as long as you can solder. But with the discount code "RETMENOT123" you can get one from advance for less than $40. and it has a lifetime warranty, so if it is not the problem, you can get your money back.
Even though we have the same symptoms, I hope the main relay is your problem, it wasn't on mine, I soldered mine 4 months ago, and popped a new one in last week, and am still having problems.
good luck,
Ken_
