HELP

LOL if you have had that same battery for the past 5 years, then all I can say is WOW.

NO I don't have the original battery. But I do think that the Honda its very voltage sentsitive. In other words if it gets cold out and the batt drops during the night it won't start It cranks fine just not start. I think the batt may be the problem I am thinking of putting a gel cel batt in what do think? lots of money but maybe the answer.

Re: (Ouija)
Doesn't sound like the battery, if it was the battery it wouldn't turn over like normal, he says he comes back later and it starts fine when the temps are up. If the battery were unable to turn the car over, letting it sit wouldn't change that. Sounds like the opposite of the Accord main relay problem. Do our civics have a main relay that can be affected by the weather?
