    Hi,

    I have a 92 Civic and I have been having some problems starting it
    lately. Sometimes it will start fine and other times it won't start,
    no matter how hard I try. I have narrowed it down to this:

    Any time I park with my front end lower than the back (even if it is
    only a or 5 inch slope) it will have trouble starting. I there may be
    a problem with the fuel pump or line as fuel does not seem to flow
    whenever the engine is higher from front to back. This is just a
    guess - I would appreciate any help that anyone can give me.

    Please email me if you have any suggestions. Thanks.

    Jared,

    You didn't mention outside temperature, or whether it has anything to do
    with sitting in sunshine, but it still sounds like it's your MAIN RELAY.

    Search this group for posts about this topic (my cut-n-paste is broken).

    you should not play any notes you have left over. -

    Jared,
    Thanks Curly,

    I guess I should have mentioned temperature . . . I have been having
    trouble mostly on hot days, so you are probably right about the Main
    Relay.

    I will search for discussions related to the main relay.
