Hey Ok i have a 94 civic coupe 5 speed.

Ok the problem I have is whenever I start my car sometimes, I put it in gear and it dies. Then i try to start it and it wont start. I let it sit 5 minutes, then it is fine again...i think its a fuel filter needing replaced. what do you guys think??

Main relay going out? It's a common problem.

is that expensive to fix?
could it be something else though&gt;

i thought that usually when the main fuel relay is going your car won't start at all and you can hit it until it finally kicks in

anyway if it is a main fuel relay i think theyre like $60 from honda and it's easy to replace. It's bolted up right under your dash
