    Unhappy Help....Please!

    My car has started this thing where I'll be going down the road and it acts like its running out of gas. If I keep pumping the gas, it will keep running and sometimes go on. Most of the time, I have to pull over and shut it off, then restart. It will run fine for a few minutes and then do it again. I have already replaced both fuel filters. When I took the line loose from the front one; no gas came out. The rear one had some sediment in it. Any suggestions? Thanx! Cole

    My car did this. It eventually went away. I think it was bad gas. When you can, just run the hell out of it in 2nd gear and try to blow through all the crap.

    Mine does this too

    OCCASIONALLY

    I have an 86 LX-i

    It bumps and shit, then the PGM-FI light comes on

    From what I read in my Honda Owners manual, I should ALWAYS run 91+ octane

    It does seem when I run below it jumps around hardcore

    Ive been to lazy and forgetful to check the computer lights tho
