Hard start Honda

I have an 89 accord dx. That i just recently replaced the starter. and since then its been difficult to start. I have to pump the gas and hold the ignition. I also replaced the fuel pump not too long ago and the battery, also the fuel relay. have also gave a tune up so new plugs and wires and air filter. the only thing havent replaced is the fuel filter but it started like this right after i replaced the starter.

Doe's the electrical starter turn the engine over, but the engine will not fire?'

Symptoms of a cold hard start is usually a bad or dirty MAF sensor.

Re: Hard start Honda

Turn the key to "ON" few times and then try to start. If it starts - you have fuel delivery problems.
