3 or 4 times each summer my Accord fails to hot start after driving and parking at the gas station or grocery store. The motor cranks as usual. A 5-to 10 minute wait restores instant normal starting without any sign of flooding, surging or hesitation. One caller to Click and Clack suggested the starting relay, but I find none. Any ides on this 1994 4 cyl Accord Ex

 

i had the same issue with my car before (search "intermittent starting problem)by me and i finally got it fixed. hope it would help you with your problem. goodluck.

 

sounds like the typical main relay problem
