92 with h22a. fuel pump turns on for the 2 seconds and then turns back off, so therefor, doesnt that mean the main fuel relay is working.

the car sat for a good week while i did the motor swap. started right up and ran fine for 30 minutes, then i drove it for about 20 minutes, then it died on me. after it stalled out, it sat for 10 minutes, started up and stalled back out. sat for 3 hours, started up, stalled back out. ???

fuel IS getting to the fuel rail.

Default Double Check all ground connections

Find as many grounding wires as you can, and make sure all the spots where they ground are clean and tight!

Make sure you are getting enough fuel pressure to the rail. (36 to 40 lb.) Pump may be weak, or even, more possibly the fuel filter is restricted and causing low pressure. It sounds more like the filter is the trouble. It's clogging as you drive, and after it sits a while the dirt settles,and then it will run again for a short time.

Main realy could be the problem also, but good luck replacing it. The easiest way is to remove the screws along the top dash rail, unclip the black face plate, and then the speedometer/tach unit. You can get to the bolt then, possibly!

But if all that stuff is OK, then check the injector relay!!! It's at the left rear corner of the engine compartment. Good luck!

its ether the imc(ignition control Modula) the coil or broken wires.the imc aka igniter is the little box with 4 wires ruining to it under the dizzy.so change out the imc and the coil from the old dizzy (the one with the bad ckp sensor)and check for broken wires.the code 41 is the 02 sensor or broken wires but would still run good with that code.is it a new dizzy or a used one.you probably flooded the car so next start up attempt hold the gas to the floor.

ok code 16 is the injector the injector resistor,wiring or the ecm.you can check the injectors you should have 1.5 to 2.5 ohms on each injector.the injector resister looks like this.its strange you codes keep changing with diferent dizzys.i have seen the injector resistors go bad.
