when you say it just chokes. does this mean it will still crank over as normal and the dash light are still on
and
when you have to wait for the electrical to tick, you mean you hear a tick then it will start , however if you dont hear a tick it wont start. if so then what tinkerbell
said could be the problem main PGMFi relay
make sure you have the correct earth bolts fitted to all earth cables and also check if the main earth battery lead hasnt turned green, si civics have aknown problem with earth cables
When i put it on ignition i gottta wait till i here the electrical ticks then it would start.
it sounds like your main relay might be on its way out...
this is under the dash, and is usually brown and about the size of 4 matchboxes on top of each other.
this sends the siganl to the fuel pump to make it pump,
if you look under your dasha nd can find the main relay, with the battery disconnected, remove it and swap it for a known good one ie from your friends cars, and see if it solves the problem...
