From what I have read on here so far it sounds like i have a bad main relay. I cant id this relay... there is a black box with a few chips in it and it looks like 3 relays over it which is over the fuse box... hard to get to.... which is the main relay?

It has all the classic symtoms as laid out in:

nope sounds like you are looking in the wrong place.
the main relay is to the drivers side of the steering column above the cruise control unit. All you can see of it is the bottom where the plug is.
You have to lay on your back on the drivers floor board and look straight up

 

Your right.... Its right under the cruise control unit... Cant see it without removing it.

This page was a lot of help :

I got at it but cant find my soldering iron.. on the bright side i can shake it until it starts now.

Question.... does the flashing d4 light indicated that I have a bad efi main relay or that I also have trannie problems?

Thanks
Robert

nOOb , hehe

 

Blinking D4 indicates a tranny problem.

Well that's what it says in the handbook for my 94 Accord

 

Will a Flashing d4 prevent the car from running?

Thanks
Robert

 

I replaced the rz-0088 with a used one and it seems to start faster now... Not that it was so bad before when it wasnt too hot.... it just catchs as soon as I turn the key now.

Thanks for all your help!
