starting problem at short distance
hi guys it is almost a year, since I have this problem. My car 90 honda accord
starts ok and If I go 10 miles and switch off my car, it starts fine again but
the problem comes when I go just 1 mile and turn off the car and try to start again it wont start,I may have to spend 10 to 15 mts trying to start again. It will try to start but wont so I have to try cranking between 10 to 15 times before it starts again. It so I dont feel like using my car for short distance.
I can drive 100 s of mile and the car starts fine till I go some long distance,
guys does any one help me please.

main fuel relay
in all seriousness try whacking the top left corner of your dash hard multiple times(the relay is located there) and see if the car starts easier, that should confirm the problem.

In addition to the above, turn the key on and wait for the Check Engine Light to go out. Then crank the car; this allows good fuel pressure to help the injectors spray out a fine mist instead of a drizzle that can cause flooded plugs.
is there any way to reach from the front end for this relay also thanks for your suggestion I will try to do what ever you had suggested.
access to the main relay is fialy easy from the left underside of the dash, if you have an ex or lx model with cruise control there will be a gray metal cruise control unit you need to move out of the way to get to the relay. the pic below shows what the relay looks like:

these relays are sometimes repairable BTW
