O.K peeps, here is the riddle. '90 Accord 2 door EX(?)
Try not to make this a book for you all. Im getting a no start. Car is a b!t<h and dont like me or is totally possessed. It doesnt happen all the time, no time traveled to explain this other then to say it only happens when Im by myself and with no tools. Seems after sitting for sometime it will then just start out of no where, first time took about an hour and was one phone with tow company and turned the key and it cranked and fired. Yesterday it died, called my sister and not sure why I told her to bring jumper pack, guess because the battery died the other day with the key on for about two minutes. However it wasnt click click click like a dead battery its one click and nothing. She gets there first 15 or so minutes getting nothing but one click as she is talking to the thing like its a baby(her ex car) Me Im telling the thing I will punch all windows out and put a rag in the gas filler and light a match . So I tell her to get in so I can maybe pin point what is clicking(starter, relay, whatever). She turns key car cranks and fires. What can I look at that maybe causing this even tho diagnosing wont be easy as now it will start. One thing I noticed as I was sitting there I hit the window button and it went up, no big deal except the key was on the seat. It has never done that nor should it, and why I mentioned the dead battery the other day. Yesterday it sat after driving one town over 10-15 minutes, ran for about another 10 mins and then shut off for about 15 mins before I tried to start it again to leave. Really need to get this fixed but dont want to just throw parts at it.
Note,,,, May be easier to list what is old rather then what is new on this car. As for starting circuit, Alt and neg cable off battery is maybe two month old Denso, Battery is an Interstate and 8 months old. Starter is a Bosh and at least 3 years old now. Key doesnt fell loose or flappy not that I really can go by that. The window issue does make me think it is electrical What else do you think it could be.??? Am I missing any relays that may not open right when it feels like it.? I hate electrical issues they my Kryptonite
Any help or ideas to point me at something is appreciated.!!

 

Have you tried diagnosing using the tech auto site? http://techauto.tripod.com/

 

I haven't but will look into it. Anything to help. Right now the car isn't my DD but I would like to be able to get into it and go somewhere without worrying if the thing will start or not. Seems to be a draw somewhere, not sure if that is the issue or not and probably has to do with the windows still being able to go down w/out the key in it. Spent a lot on this car in the last year and now its onto making the body right so I was hoping to have it for many years to come. Right now its completely stock, want to do a few small mods but always seems to be something else that sucks up the money.

 

Maybe I should have clicked the link...
Haven't pulled the Main relay but is on the top of the list. On the 3rd one in the last little over a year. Suck design, if it turns out to be that I am changing the location of it. Seems they can't breath where it is. Some kind of box under it and not sure if that heats up causing the solder to melt and spread along with the heat of the car. Bad design bad placement on that relay
