Check main relay. Behind left side dash. This is known issue. Replacement about $50 or less if @ junk yard.

If you are sure you are getting fuel, this could be a problem with the ignition coil or ignitor. Sometimes when they start to go you get an intermittent problem like this, These parts aren't too expensive and they shouldn't be too difficult for you to replace. You can also check if rotating the distributor to adjust the timing makes any difference.

sounds like u have bent vavle....check compresion

REPLACE THE BATTERY AND CLEAN AND FULLY TIGHTEN THE TERMINALS AND SEE IF THAT GIVES YOU MORE CRANKING POWER.

You more than likely have a problem with the TCU (transmission control unit). It may also be other things. You need to seek professional help before spending money on a TCU that may or may not be the problem. It takes an expert to diagnose this problem.

This is a typical Honda problem. unfourtunatly their design on the transmissions are not the best. Most of the times when you have a flashing light on the shifter on a honda it is the beginning of an internal transmission problem, not a major one but most likley one of the solonoids in it. just for future reference to you make sure to keep your trans fluid changed on the recommend mileage because they do have an internal filter that is extremley common for plugging up and giving a no shift condition.

Hi,

Hey, good job ordering the "main relay" honda have a BIG problem with this issue. That sounds like your right on target. Some other ideas to kick around if that doesn't work.

1. Clean the throttle flap

dirt get on flap restricting air flow causing stalling issues. (Clean with B12 cleaner in the white can and a rag. Don't use too much B12 cleaner. 10 seconds is more than enough. )

2. Check Idle Air Control Valve
check the Idle air control valve on the back of the intake manifold ( firewall side on engine) remove the two bolts and inspect the screen in the valve for dirt and carbon. You can replace it, but it just may need to be cleaned.

Good luck with the project and hope I'ved helped.

trannys are always hard to figure out but hey im 15 years old and i can still help with most problems it might just be your honda or that ur trannys not wired properly

replace the Main Relay
