got a civic...90% of the time it will start no problem...but rest of the time it will crank but it will not start...I have to try again and again until it finally starts..just replace the battery and the alternator so I was thinking it might be the fuel pump or the fuel filter...what do u guys think..let me know..
thanks |

Try to prime your fuel first, before you start your car. You do that by turning the key to the on position and waiting for at least 3 seconds.
