I have a 92 Prelude and after being driven and shut off, the engine light will come on and wont start. It will turn over but not crank. Sometimes if you take the radiator cap off and squeeze the radiator hose the light will go away and start. But sometimes that doesnt work either. Once light is out and started, runs fine and has no problems. is this radiator related, thermostat, tps, or some sort of cooling sensor.

Hi daoust32,

Problem could be due to the ECM or PGM-FI main relay or ECM wirings.

I would suggest checking the PGM-FI main relay and ground circuit at the thermostat housing first.

Try to retrieve for trouble codes to see if any is recorded.
