Why wont my car start when its hot outside but if you wait 10min. It will start

Asked by Christy Jul 01, 2013 at 05:02 AM about the 2001 Honda Prelude 2 Dr STD Coupe

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

1 Answer

My 96 Honda did the same thing. It was a "Main Relay Assembly" going bad which sends power to the fuel pump. This little box plugs in up under the dash. Mine was above the gas pedal. $55 part at Advanced fixed it.
