My 92 Honda Accord has a systemic problem. It cranks, but does not start. Here's are some info:
Battery is good. Cranks normally. However, at times it seems like it's not getting the fuel, or proper mixture or something, then its just cranks and not start. When ever this happens, the only thing to fix it is to try it many times, up to 20-30 times, and using the suggested method of pumping the gas pedal seveval times, then keep it depressed and recranks. Only after so many times, it then starts.
It does not sound like a fuel pump problem. Because once runs, it runs fine, no hiccups.
It seems to run across this problem when the engine is cut off and it seems like engine sucks the last drop of gas out of the line and the it whines down, not quite a normal clean engine cut off. It happens on hotter days too.
At any rate, not exactly sure, but again the poor's man fix has always been to recrank up until the battery is dead which has not occur yet. It eventually starts.
