Hey guys recently I have been having a problem starting my 93 Integra. It seems to start fine if the engine is cold. If I drive it for a bit and let it sit for a hour or so the car will just crank but wont start. I litterly have to crank it about 30 times and finally it will fire up. I am thinking about replacing the igniter. Anyone have any ideas before I blow my money? Thanks

 

yes...I had the same problem with my 92..........your distributor is on the way out.........

 

Crap I thought they had a recall on the distributers? Maybe I can get it free.

 

im not sure if they did, but I know I had to buy I new one for 350 $

 

Have you tried replacing your main fuel relay? I had the same problem. Starts strong when cold, hard to start when hot. Also hard to start during the summer when sitting out in the sun and the cabin temp rises. You could try resoldering the joints in your existing relay or buy a new one for $70.

My buddy has a spare Dizzy Im going to try to use tonight. If this doesnt work Im going for the main relay Thanks guys

 

yeah try that dizzy and then shoot for a fuel prob...

 

i work for honda..
i would start with the main relay. take it apart from the cover and look at the contacts real good look to see if they are broken, if so resoder them. and try again

b18c-93, thanks for the pics.

My buddy had a Dizzy laying around that I can use and we hooked it up last night. Car runs fine at the moment. This doesnt happen all the time so its tuff to track down. IF the dizzy doesnt resolve the issue Im going to check out what b18c-93 showed me, again guys thanks!

 

thats cool let me know what up

 

I had the same problem and solved by changing the dist. cap, rotor, and ignition coil. The ignition coil is known to go bad around 90-100k.

 

don't change out the whole distributer...just the cap, rotor and coil. its much much cheaper from an autoparts store then getting a whole new piece from honda.
