Does anyone know what might be wrong?
I put in the fuel injector cleaner on a full tank and i drove it around a bit hoping its cleaning the injector. but the car still dies when i let off the gas. its not the battery, its new.

so far it hasnt, it sounds like a working car Pretty much, you would never know that this was happening until you experience it for yourself youd think the car works perfectly fine...then BOOM it dies

you could just need a tune up my friends car did the same thing when they let off of the gas and it did need an oil change as well. so im guessing a tune up or a simple oil change.

Do you have any check engine lights? Check the (IAC) Idle Air Control sensor that is where I would start.

I know for a fact it's the engine timing, my car has the same issue and i'm fixing it next week. If you want a mechanic to do it, the job will cost 600-800 dollars. If you do it yourself, the parts will cost $200 maximum, but it's a rough job.

I have a 1997 Honda Accord SE, my engine cranks but will not turn over i also seem to be losing gas very fast every time i try to start it. I have spark and we took apart the fuel filter yesterday and it did disperse gas so i know the fuel pump is working, any suggestions on where to go? also my check engine light comes on and flashes once for one second as well as my oil pressure light and battery i just added two quarts of oil thinking the oil pressure was to low to start the car which is a safety feature alot of hondas have, im running out of options and i refuse to pay a mechanic to fix it, as last time they absolutely ripped me off, please let me know i appreciate any input.
