I have a 1987 Accord LXi which is fuel injected. The problem I have is that after you fill the car with gas it will not start right away. I have had to sit there for 1-5 minutes before it will start. Has anyone encountered this problem? Could it be the car going into vapor lock because something is clogged? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

 

does it only happen when the car is warm? if it does, then you might have a bad main relay. or, maybe your fuel pump itself is going out if the problem is that your not getting fuel. does the car crank and just not start?

 

does it only happen if you COMPLETELY fill the tank or will it happen if you just add a gallon or two of fuel?

 

Hi, it does crank, but just won't start, acts like it is in vapor lock. after a minute or so it will just start right up... go figure

 

Hey Sir Nasty, no it does not have a problem with just a few gallons, it is only if I fill it up...
