Sign In (1988 Honda Accord LX) The engine cranks but doesn't stay running; When I press the accelerator to try to get the engine to idle, it doesn't rev; It feels like there is absolutely no power- then it shuts off. The symptoms are similar to when the fuel filter is clogged. Here is what I tried: I made sure it had gas, it's receiving fuel to the carburator, no fuel filter clogs etc, fuel pump works, I checked the fuses, it's getting a spark from the coil and it looks like the choke isn't sticking. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You. Discretesignals Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Mar 19, 2014, 6:53 PM Post #2 of 3 (1204 views) Re: Starting/Running Problem...

As DS asked did this do this while running or just now on a cold start up? It can run at all so far I think the choke is all wrong either too rich or lean then continued trying it's flooded type thing?
