I have a 1991 Honda civic si which was given to me by my late grandfather. I am having major problems starting the car. My grandfather had replaced the gas tank, the fuel lines and most likely the fuel pump. Once i got the car I replaced the battery and tried to start it, when it didn't start I looked online for suggestions. One site said check the ECU, i pulled up the carpet but the ECU didn't put out any light, so I ordered a new ECU and when I plugged it in the car still did not start. Then a friend suggested that I check for an alarm system that might be blocking power to the ECU and preventing it from starting, and remove it. So I did. The car still did not start and the ECU light will still not come on. I checked that all the spark plugs are sparking and that i have good compression in each cylinder. After all of this I poured gas directly into the cylinders, put the spark plugs back on and started it that way. After doing this, the car ran but once all the gas I had put into the cylinders was used up, the car turned off. If anyone has any suggestions or advice it would be greatly appreciated. I also believe that my fuel pump might not be getting power either.
