I have replaced the spark plugs & spark plug wires also did a oil change.
One morning it started fine drove it about 15-25 min and turned it off.
When I came back to start again 45 min. Later it would not start, it does turn over and try to start and sometimes it will start for one second and die? Please help this is my only ride

Check fuel pump pressure first. It sounds like the pump went bad.

I had one of these and loved it. But worked on it a lot.
The fuel pump rarely goes out in these, start with your coil wire, is it connected? Said you changed plugs so. If it is fuel related check for the relays, there is also one hidden under a plate in the bottom of the steering column

That's correct. Check for fuel pressure and if you have it, check for spark.

That's still not the problem though I have replaced my roder cap and distributer cap but still does the same thing. I'm clue less and my grandpa is wanting to buy a Honda just like mine to switch all the parts with but I think it might be the two pick UPS?

Before anything is purchased, have you determined if the engine is getting spark and fuel?
