94 Honda Accord- intermitant problem not starting on hot days.
I have a strange problem that comes and goes.
Sometimes when I get into the car after it has been in the sun for a while, it won't start. the starter motor turns, but It doesn't start. If I turn it back off, wait a few minutes, it starts right up. It either starts right up, or doesn't start at all. It always starts if I'm patient enough. (after 10 minutes sometimes, usually less.) I have had this problem for few years now, and my mechanic doesn't know what the problem is, and would rather replace a bunch of stuff to find out. I would rather order the part online, and put it in myself with my new official Honda manual from Helms. Does anybody have a clue?? My wiring and ignition is up to date. I have a new ICM (ignition control module) It seems to be something electric since sometimes I can just turn it off, and back on a few times in a row, and get it to start. Thanks for any help. -- B.
