rode around yesterday and the car cut off on me a few times and stutter and each time i banged on the pump in the trunk it would start back up or run normal so i just finish putting a new pump today and the relay was changed Friday i'll see

 

The pump has ground connection in the trunk right by the pump cover, have you inspected that ground point?

 

yeah all good and tight and pump didn't cost much so i put in a new one so if its still running funny at least i know its not the pump or relay

 

So far so good still running fine with the new pump

 

Maybe it was the previous aftermarket pump.....or connections ?
Oh well, thanks for following up !!!

 

When the shop changed the first pump they didn't change the screener It was brown, dry and coming apart and it's nothing to change the screener it only cost me 8$ i should have did it myself the first time

 

Back at it again same problem car not starting once again i banged on the fuel pump cover and the car started again and its still under the warranty but I can't find the receipt from last April

 

A good shop will have your file in their system and honor their warranty.

 

What brand of fuel pump are you using? Fuel pump failures on any honda are rare. There are aftermarket fuel pump brands that are ok, but some are pure CRAP. I'm not referring to no name, internet stuff, but a recognized brand.

 

I dont remember what brand the pump was but the warranty is six months so time is up they said to change the fuel filter but I was told that there was no filter just the screener but I was told there is one does anyone know thanks

 

Im thinking your fuel pressure regulator might be stuck closed killing the pump. You should have it tested when putting a new pump.

 

I changed the pump and the car is running fine now but i was shown a pic of feul filter that looks like the housing that the pump goes into does anybody know if that is a filter also because one place said the screener is the only filter thanks

 

The in-tank filter is also called a strainer, screen, or sock. It's the only one on your car. If you don't have a ton of dirt in the tank (usually from a rusted out filler tube), I think you're getting crappy pumps. I took a look at rock auto, and the only ones I would consider are bosch, delphi, or denso.

 

I changed the screener but the part store is showing me this which looks like the housing
1999-2003 Acura TL Fuel Pump Filter - Fuel Delivery - Beck Arnley 99-03 TL Fuel Pump Filter - 5951-05165456 - PartsGeek

 

I'd call it a housing too, based on that picture.
