So, I ran into my first major problem guys. Here's what happened.

Friday night- Went to my sister's bar to eat. Accidently left my lights on. When I came out my battery was dead. Got a jump, ran fine, no problem.

Later Friday night- Went to go meet someone to sell something off Craigslist. Car had trouble starting up, but when did it ran fine.

Saturday morning- Car has trouble turning on, and when it does it goes to 1500 rpm, then 1000, then studders to dead.

I have replaced: fuel filter, cap, rotor, spark plug wires, fuel pump. I'm stumped.

Car is a '92 hath running a b20z2.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

So you can't keep the engine running now?

Did you also replace the spark plugs?

Any CEL codes?

Spark plugs are 2 weeks old. No codes. It's running. Main relay was bad. I only hear good things about RonJ. Haha. Thanks guys!

I do have one other question though. My fuel gauge isn't correct. It says I have more fuel than I actually do. How can I fix this?

Sometimes my speedometer jumps around too.Will changing the cluster fix this?
Could possibly be your VSS (vehicle speed sensor), but with the fuel gauge wrong as well it could very well be the cluster.
