Default 1990 Accord Starting Problem

i have a 1990 Honda accord EX 4 Door, Automatic Transmission.


On cold start it takes awhile to start, but eventually it will. Sometimes it takes longer than other times...i'm not sure what to look. A honda dealer told me it could be the Main ignition module? What do you guys suggest it could be??


Any help would be greatly appriciated.

Default Re: 1990 Accord Starting Problem (rleonekc)

Main Power Relay
Fuel Injector
Engine Temperature Sensor

What I would suggest?
On a day that you can anticipate the condition occuring; take the air tube from the Air Filter box off at the Throttle Body and spray some Carburetor Cleaner into the intake. past the throttle plate.
If it immediately starts (or attempts to start) your problem is fuel delivery related.

If prior poor start conditions were accompanied by a heavy fuel odor, it's possible you have an injector that leaks down at night.
I'd also think in terms of the main power relay
