Hi - I'm new to this forum. I did a search for my problem but no luck.

I own a 1989 Acura Integra (appearently mechanically similar to a Civic). I've owned it since new. 186,000 miles.

In warm - hot weather, the car stalls at idle. In cool - cold weather, no problem.

Other than that, the car runs great. I was told that this might be the fuel pump relay (main relay?). Is this a
common problem? Is it likely the relay or something else?

Thanks!

 

Yes, it is fairly likely. I've had this happen to 3 of my Civics, so I would look into getting it replaced.

 

Yea, my 00 civic stall at least once a month.... are my fuel injectors dirty?

 

Well, I can't tell you if they're dirty... but you could try cleaning them...

 

should i get that gas cleaner $hit

 

Yeah. STP or Seafoam.

 

Alright, thanx. ill stick with STP i guess ill hit a gas station. if not a pep boys or similar. Hey... Im going to the junk yard for a door tomorow. Any body lookin for somethin?

 

Yeah a turbo.. lol

 

u sure u guys aren't taking ur foot off the clutch on accident? j/k

 

What does the fuel pump relay do? Like what is its mechanical function? I'm having fuel distribution problems, so I'm trying to take in as much info as I can on this stuff. Thanks!
