Default 1992 Accord LX AT hard starting cold... Runs great after start...

92 Accord LX 200+K miles new battery, plugs, distributor,etc. Very hard to start cold. Engine cranks really slow and labored... keep trying gets similar slow cranks then clicking of relays under dash... then slow cranking but a little more lively... a few more clicks... then a stronger crank and a sputter... then a stronger crank and a couple of sputters... This keeps up with continuing improvement until the engine catches and starts and runs fine... After driving a while and shutting off engine, the car will start right up with no problem... every time during the day... leave it overnight an I'm back to the slow crank, clicking, better crank, steady improvement with sputtering and then it starts... The whole process takes 20-30 crank-overs... Ideas?

Have your battery load tested

Dude i have a 1990 Honda accord EX and i have that IDENTICAL problem.

Have your fuel system checked, to make sure your gettin enough fuel to your car...

Then try your main ignition module.

Those are just ideas im throwin out there...
