Hello, I have a 1990 Honda Accord EX that six months ago gave me a hard time starting. Turnes over great put wont start. If I try it a few time then it would start and run just fine. This week the problem has come back. I let it sit at work for the day hot weather wont start right away but after a few tries it starts and again runs great. Have changed fuel filter, plugs
Any Ideas??
Thanks
Igniter? I have a 91 Accord, see this post:
Like dgk suggested, the main relay is a strong candidate for replacement or possibly repair. See
===========================
That's the main relay. Until you get around to fixing it, you can turn the key to position II and smack the dash with your left fist. You'll hear the fuel pump run for two seconds and the car will now start.

hot weather + no-start = main relay.
don't waste your money changing the fuel filter on a honda. i've yet to see a single one that actually needed it.
