same shit happened to me. but i was able to start it after 5 min stranded

[4CYLPOWER92]

hmm you gotta show me the ropes here kane. i'm due for a smog this july!!!

No problem, well besides what Joesue said make sure you clean the EGR valve and ports. I didn't, and my NO level was high because of it.

I passed visually except for the JDM P13. They wanna see the USDM one in there. They also wanna see the air boost valve installed, which I had already done. Other than that, with all other vacuum lines connected properly...no worries.

Also, I used my stock accord LX airbox with no EX (or prelude) vacuum stuff under it, and they didn't mention anything about it.

they must be more strict up there then san diego, plenty of us sd guys pass with the jdm p13. yea the egr ports and valve is heavenly contaminated of carbon build up since h22s are notorious for that stuff (hence why it spits out black shit outta the muffler)

before my next smog/oil change im gonna sea foam/atf the engine and clean that nasty build up.

im gonna run a test pipe on my car so carbon doesnt build up in the cat as well. and before i smog the car ill swap the cat on.

hey joesue wanna trade that test pipe i gave you for the spark plug wires?

hahaha, I gave it away already. that shit made the exhaust too loud. LOL. sorry, but you can still give me that spark plug wire set. I'll do it for a valve adj.??

nah we think its the fule pump. its trying to start, we tried to push start it lol but that didnt go to well on the side of the 605. i also think it has to do that i put 91 octane in it just for fun and maybe that had to do wit it. idk we'll find out 2morrow wat the problem is.
keep u guys posted

[jhondayaaj]

fuel pumps hardly go out on our car's. but the main relay goes bad. if only you were closer, I could help. let us know what is wrong with your first before any repairs are done. don't want you to get ripped off.

In case you don't know yet, I work for HONDA, Jesus works for an independant shop, and tony (cb7extreme) works for ACURA. so we have a few good techs here on board. Jesus is closer to you though.

yeah i have my air boost valve and vac lines installed besides the other vac lines under the stock intake box on EX models, just like you kane! i figured they would like to see a USDM p13 in there. time to search for one i guess, or drive down to SD.

the EGR ports are a PAIN to get to on h22 manifolds! ever consider just seafoaming the darn thing? what cat are you running too? if the stock cat, that is prolly what's causing you to fail as well. over 10 years old, do you think it's still filtering at its best?
