I have a 92 honda civic. It has a problem of not starting. This only happens during the summer months. it will start at night when it is not hot outside. I don't know if the main relay will cause something like this. If anyone out there has some guidance, i would be most greatful. Please reply soon, as this problem is driving me crazy.

My '86 Prelude did the same thing, the problem was that the fuel pump was'nt always starting, not getting any current from the relay - it would only happen when it was hot out. I just ran a hot wire from my battery to the pump and mounted a small toggle switch in the dash, now if it won't start I flip the switch and she starts right up. Maybe not the right way to repair it but it's worked for years ! Matt

It's the main relay. Same car, same problem. Resoldered all points on the main relay, hasn't failed since.

that's /so/ dangerous. the main relay is designed to switch off if the motor is inactive for more than 2 seconds. the way you have it now, you crash, you flame, you continue pumping high pressure gas into your by now toasty little engine compartment. how quickly are you going to drag yourself out of that flaming wreck? what about passengers? fix or replace the main relay.
