Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    Accord problems

    Okay so i recently purchased a 1991 accord sedan. I wake up today and my car wont start. I have narrowed the issues down to the main relay. I just replaced the distributor and the fuel pump is good. I think its the main relay that is keeping it from getting fuel to the engine. It is getting spark just no fuel. Anyone have any ideas or help with my problem.

      i think you probably answered your own question! look in the DIY section for the DIY on how to fix it! or just replace it!

      good luck! does it start after a while? or just DEAD! Pernamently?

                I got it to start once after letting it sit a while. The car had a busted radiator and ran hot but did not over heat the night before...so im guessing the heat cracked one of the soilder points on the main relay. Just a guess but it will start every now and then maybe once or twice.

                  I dont know all of what the main relay controls i know that the number 7 point controls the fuel pump, i tested it for spark and its getting it. Does anyone know how much a main relay would cost?
