98 Honda Accord sputtering when accelerating

When I push the gas it seems as if it isn't getting much fuel. It sputters pretty bad. I reaplaced the spark plugs and wires, but not fixed. I am unsure of what it could be? I was told that it could be water in the fuel, so I ran all the gas out and replaced it with new gas....it's still doing the same. Can anyone help me out with this?

Thanks alot for any replies...

It's most likely your fuel filter. Your check engine light should be on and a code might direct you toward your fuel injectors. They should be setting off a code because they are starving for fuel. If your check engine light is not on it probably will be soon. The only other thing I can think of would be your fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator or a cracked/rusted fuel line. Hope this helps!!!

1999 honda accord seems like it isn't gettign a steady fuel supply, it keeps sputtering and almost dies but when I pump the gas pedal it revs back up. I just put a new O2 sensor in and it sounds l

First question is - is the check engine light on ?
If yes you should check it for codes next.
You may have to use a scanner to watch the O2 sensor to figure out if it is too lean or too rich. I would also check fuel pressure at the rail with a gauge to make sure pressure is normal. Could be a faulty fuel pressure regulator among other things.

My 1993 honda accord sputters when accelerating

If you can't answer when the last time you changed the fuel filter it might not be a bad idea to change it. It could also be a vacuum leak as older cars ran on vacuum controls for emissions and things like that. listen for a possible whistle when accelerating or air being sucked in like a vacuum cleaner. Could also be a bad map sensor, or O2 sensor.

1983 Honda Accord - possible fuel line problem

Flooded means there is too much gas and it blows black smoke and sputters when it does start, right? Flooded has to do with the carburetor, nothing else. There are little windows on the float bowls to see what the fuel level is. If the fuel level is too high it will flood. I sounds like maybe the needle and seat are bad and the carburetor needs an overhaul. If it sputters and no black smoke then it isn't getting enough gas and then your filter search may be the right path. The primary filter should be behind the left rear wheel against the body. Support the car and take the wheel off is easiest way to change it.

Engine sputtering

I would change your fuel filter, if that doesn't do it check your fuel pressure with a gauge at your schrader this is a pretty simple test if you are not getting enough pressure, then test your fuel pressure regulator, if it's bad replace it. if it's good got to your fuel pump, I am assuming you don't have or even know what a DSO is, so if you traced it to a fuel pump, take it to an auto technican and ask them to do a fuel current ramping test and this will tell you your fuel pump rpm's most of todays properly operating fuel pumps spin from at least 4000 rpm to 6500 rpm. happy motoring!

HONDA ACCORD 94 PUSH ON THE GAS AND IT DOSNT WANT TO GO

make sure your fuel does NOT have any ethanol in it. these engines don't like corn fuel. i had a similar hesitation problem. it was from using gas w/ 10% ethanol. i switched to 100% gas, no more hesitation.

Acceleration hesitation

This sounds like a shorted spark plug wire or a bad spark plug.

Car stalling

this could be many things, you could have dirty fuel injectors, in which you just buy some fuel injecter cleaner. Or it could be something like an o2 sensor, because o2 sensors "read" the exhaust coming out of your car and adjust fuel/air mixture as necessary. If its bad then it will send mixed signals, making the car sputter and hesitate when you push the gas. But my guess would be dirty fuel injectors.
Good luck with your car.
