    Main Relay Replaced still won't start

    Okay so I just replaced my main relay And it still won't start. It's doing the same exact thing as it did before I replaced it. Anyone else have this problem and know how to fix it? Thanks

            what would the dizzy have to due with fuel. There was a thread on here not too long back that says which wires to jump to by pass the main relay for the time being. Also take out the new main relay and see if it's doens't have bad soldering on it. If this is all fuel related only check things for your fuel... fuel pump, fuel filter, the fuel itself, main relay.

            the dizzy will be part of your ignition not fuel.
            WTB:
            88-01 prelude 2.0si (3g) si (4g,5g)
            OR
            90-93 Accord.

            Has to be 5spd, has to be CHEAP. SUPER CHEAP. Will be in Indiana in February permanently and want a project car when I get settled in.

                thanks guys. That's the problem with buying a used car I guess. I went through it and check EVERYTHING dealing with the fuel. I even installed a new fuel pump just cause I had a new one laying around from one of my old accord. It didnt have anything to do with fuel. I'm sure its the distributor. I'm gonna switch it out tomorrow and let you know.

                    Dude why dont you check if you get any fuel?Easiest way to check is to loosen up the relief bolt(oposite side to were your fuel line conects on the fuel rail),put a rag around and crank it.If you see/smell fuel you are alright.If you wanna check if one (or more)of your injectors are clogged,put a new set of spark plugs,crank it,pull them out and see if they smell like fuel.If you got fuel start checking the ignition sytem.put a spark plug on a spark plug wire and have someone crank it to see if you got spark.Just make sure its dark so you can see it.Good luck.

                      The problem is most likely no spark. The fuel pumps on our cars are bullet proof.
                      Try replacing the Igniter and/or the coil.
                      The igniter is inside the distributer.
                      It happened to me.

                        alright I went to the dealership and I took a distributor off the parts car they have but that one didnt have the external coil on it. I brought it to the house like a dumbass hoping it'll work anyway. And it didn't so I got get another one. So hopefully thats it. if not I'll be pissed.

                          FUCK THE FUCKIN WORLD!!!!! I hate everything! I just paid 189 for the new distibutor,cap, and rotor. Put it all in. Nothing happened. Went out and paid 78 for the external coil. Put it in,Nothing. So I said screw it and literally ripped that stupid valet box out and chewed the wires off with my teeth...not really.but i did cut them. Then I threw that thing into the next galaxy... slammed my head on the wheel like back to the future...Turned key...STARTED. I'm going to burn the dealership I bought it from down tomorrow for not having that thing to activate it, and for jerry rigging it to work til i got home.
