stalling at ignition
if the car (honda accord ex 1993) stalls at ignition or
turns forever, what can that be? I've tried looking at the main relay, it seems ok. Hotter weather the car is worse off, especially with humidity. If I throw it into neutral then back to park I also have better 'luck'. PS- thanks for the advice from last time. My new server only allows two days then makes the messages 'illegal'. Regards, John |

I don't know what you mean when you said that you "tried looking at the main relay--it seems ok." The only way to detemine if the main relay is working is to test it with the proper equipment. If you don't have the proper equipment or know how to test it--I advise you to take it to your favorite mechanic and have them do it. If you want to do it yourself, you need to get a manual such as one made by Haynes. Try calling Haynes at 1-805-498-6703. The one you need is 42012 |

The one you need is 42012 The factory service manual can be obtained from http://www.helminc.com. While it may be slightly more expensive than a Haynes manual, it will also go into much greater depth. Eric |
