I used to have a 90 CRX Si (same engine as the Civic Si), and went round and round with a local shop replacing all manner of electrical components until finally discovering that the main relay was the culprit. https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-crx-ef-civic-1988-1991-3/car-starts- dies-when-warm-2119566/ https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-crx-ef-civic-1988-1991-3/checking- main-relay-pics-2535047/ -- Dave |

| "Peter W." <peterwieck33@gmail.com>: Feb 01 04:32AM -0800 So we have established that it is not ignition, but fuel related? Have you _ever_ changed the fuel filter in 30 years? Fuel-pump relay failures are seldom (not never) thermal. Once they latch, they tend to be fine. Peter Wieck Melrose Park, PA |
