Hello group, a few months back, my Civic started having some starting trouble which seems to get worse; last week, it didn't want to start on two evenings. The reason it doesn't start is because the fuel pump turns off (I can hear the relays clicking). "The usual" main relays trouble, for which there are some excellent web pages out there? I'm not so sure... the symptoms are: - only seems to happen when cold (as in, Northern California night time temps ;) - when turning the ignition key from off to on, the fuel pump comes on - leaving it in on will cause the fuel pump to click off after a second or so - *usually*, when going from on to start, the fuel turns on again, as evidenced by the relay's click - when the failure occurs, the main relays will click on and then immediately off again. Of course, cranking won't do much good in that state if there's no fuel. After a few attempts, it will either stay on in "start", or the engine will have enough inertia when going from start back to the on position (where the fuel pump is on) that it springs to life. I'm probably going to take out the main relay tomorrow and see if it looks alright. Something tells me the real cause is elsewhere - it's like the ECU inhibits the fuel pump due to some other reason. Appreciate any suggestions, ideas, .... Thanks! TomB PS: the car runs fine otherwise, no trouble codes or any other hassles (apart from rattles and things you'd expect from a car of that age)
