1996 Honda Accord need help!!!
My Honda will start up run for while and then it will stalls. I’ll start go inside and go back and it will be off or ill be going down the road and have it stall. It’s will start right back up most of the time, sometimes it takes a minute. After it stalls and running again normal I can drive it for a while again. It’s had the fuel pump, plugs and wire, distributor, main relay all replace. Should I replace the ignition switch?

Is the check engine light on?
have you retrieved any codes form the ECU?
Check and ensure that all of the power and ground connections are clean and tight on the engine, chassis, battery and alternator.

Next time it stalls look at the gauges.
If they are all off as well it may be that the ignition switch itself is failing. Fairly common on older Accords ~$30.
With the engine on jiggle the key and see if that affects the running condition of the engine. If you have lots of charms or keys on your keychain this can also affect the ignition switch.
If only the engine dies and the tachometer immediately drops to zero while the other gauges stay functional, then it may be the igniter is failing.

I think we’re having the same issue. All the same repairs you did. Just bought a new ignition coil to see if it was the issue but no. I’m not getting any power to the coil. The switch is good. Buddy says may be a wire somewhere!
