crx sometimes starts...sometimes not
Did this to me last night for first time.
I started it and it dies...
did this a few times, and on the fourth time it sticks and I make the 40 mile drive home.
good power, everything is normal.
this morn, does the same thing...only this time it doesnt go after several tries.
a few hours later, I decide to try again, and sure enough, first time it starts.
So, turn it off and go inside.
Come out an hour later, and again it starts right up.
So, I have an intermittent electrical problem (it would appear)...I'm kinda thinkin main relay, but am open to opinions?

well, main relay is a good start.
there's a pretty simple way to check if it works... listen for it.
turn the key to the second position, and listen for your fuel pump priming (WHIRRRR)
then you should hear another noise (CLICK) and your Check Engine Light should turn off.
