87 honda civic starting problems
1987 honda civic itermitenly won't start. sometimes when key is turned the dash lights come on but nothing happens.I can wait up to 2 mintues to 2 days and then the car will start. Why is this happening.The car is automatic and the neutral safety switch has been bypassed and the problem still happens.

When this happens, I need you to check to see if there is power to the starter. Have a helper turn the key to the start position while you check for power to the smaller wire on the starter. There should be 12+ volts.
Let me know what you find.
