I have a 96 Honda Accord the last few weeks it will start one day but not the next, the engine cranks over fine but just doesn't seem to fire. It starts on some colds days but not always. What should I be looking at

Hi mainehonda,

Quite often it is the PGM-FI main relay that would cause the symptoims that you are describing. Check if the circuit board has cracked soldered joints. Resoldering them should solve the problem.

Is the Check Engine Lamp showing while driving? Any other symptoms that are noticeable?
