1990 accord ex 2.2L starting issues.
Hello I have. A 90 ACCORD EX IT STOPPED cranking one day after driving it. I waited about 3 days and it cranked and was able to drive other home I changed the distributor out plugs wires and rotor and it would still do the same thing ended up changing out the main ignition relay worked about 4 days and started back doing the same thing is it perhaps my ignition coil? I spent money on this car and I've lost My job because of it. What is going on with it? It's a 2.2L accord 1990 Ex

We need some more detail about what is going on.
When you turn the key to the start position, the starter spins the engine. When the engine fires up (starts running on its own), you release the key.
So is the starter spinning the engine? Or is the engine not firing up?

Sorry I only replaced the cap and rotor. The ignitior and ignition coil hasn't been replaced. But it cranks to answer your question. But never fires up. If I waited about a few hrs it starts then repeats again with the not firing.

First step w/ no-start is to try to determine whether fuel or ignition is the problem.
Next time no-start occurs, listen carefully for fuel pump to come On when keyswitch is turned to On. It should run 2-3 secs and cut off simulataneously w/ Check Engine Light.
If you hear fuel pump reliably and no-start continues, then ignition fault is likely. Check following link for diagnostics.

If you don't hear fuel pump, the Main Fuel Relay or fuel pump are likely cause of no-start.
good luck
