1992 Accord EX hot- no start
I joined this forum because I know someone else has had this problem before. When it is hot outside sometimes my 92 Accord will turn over fine, it just will not crank. Sometimes if I wait a few minutes it cranks, other times, I just have to kick it and cuss. This happened several time last summer, then went away for the winter. Now it is back.
I just replaced the distributor on 5/14 (I saw this fix posted online at another site), and it ran fine for a couple of days. Then BAM! Saturday it would not crank on the first try of the day when it was 80+ degrees out. Somebody here surely has figured it out (or their mechanic). I would appreciate any good feedback.

Typical of the main fuel relay.
Carefully listen for the fuel pump to turn on for about two seconds when you first turn the key to the II position. It happens during the clicks and is a faint whirling/buzzing sound coming from the back seat area.
If you do not hear that buzzing sound when the car doesn't start, and hear it when the car starts, then I would replace the relay.
Here are instructions on the location and how to remove it.
