'99 civic starts then dies
'99 civic with AT, 99K
I drive the car long enough to warm it up, turn it off for a while, and when I drive again the car will die. It will start, then die again. This goes on for maybe 5 tries or if I let it sit for a few minutes. Then it runs normal.
1) It's not showing anything as far as CEL codes.
2) I can hear the fuel pump is coming on as normal.
3) I replaced the main fuel relay. I understand there is a problem with the solder connections being exposed to hot temperatures like a closed up car. I know someone who had the same problem and changing the relay fixed theirs, but not mine.
4) Battery connections are clean and tight.
Any help appreciated, thanks
