Honda accord starts then dies. If gas is applied quickly, it stays running

Asked by GuruBR8LR Jan 16, 2019 at 12:32 AM about the 2003 Honda Accord

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Car starts then dies very quickly. If gas is applied quickly and not let off for 3
minutes, then all is good. Its an occasional problem but if it cuts off, its
minutes before the car will restart at all.

May just be a clogged air filter and also add some fuel injector cleaner to gas tank.

I have a 1980 Honda Accord start and runs great with or with out AC, wipers and Stereo on. But when the headlights are turned on the engine starts to die, if headlights are turned off before engine dies the engine takes off and runs great.
