i bought a 1992 honda accord about 2 months ago i've been having nothing but problems with it. the main thing is it doesnt start all the time. when it first started i took it to toyota dealer and had them look at it. theres no honda dealer here where i live. so they replaced the coil ignitor whole distributor. i had them replace the timing belts and a tune up which replace the spark plugs and a engine additve. after that it ran good for a few days. then started again not starting when it got warm. then i changed the main relay and the fuel filter and nothing. took it back to the toyota dealer they checked it out for a week and couldnt find the problem for sure but was 80 to 90 percent sure it was the computor. i broutht it home after a few days it started again in the morning half dosen times or so then stopped starting. then the other mornings it started a couple of times then wouldnt start. put a tcm tcu unit in this morning and still didnt start. the dealer said the fuel pump isok

An engine requires three things to run. They are fuel, ignition at the correct time, and compression. When the vehicle fails to start you need to find out witch of the three requirements is missing. Then we can do some testing on the system that isn't working. The distributor should be all right. Did the coil come in the distributor new? I'll be waiting to hear from you.
