sounds like it's about to start so it should be getting spark. it would be better to do a spark test to be absolutely certain.

I'd pour some starting fluid into the intake to see if it has a better time starting.

if it is indeed an insufficient fuel issue then it may be anything from a weak fuel pump, clogged lines/filter, to faulty injectors

Research replacing the main relay. It tells the fuel pump to pump fuel. Pretty common problem on early 90s Accord. It's in the dash. Had a similar issue with mine.
