    Does it puff smoke once started?

    Read the part in your manual about how to start a flooded Honda. If that
    solves it, run a can of Techron injector cleaner thru it, or a couple
    tanks of Gasohol. A dripping injector will sabotage your car overnight
    and make it almost impossible to start (unless you do what the manual
    says). HOWEVER, If it won't restart after a short trip, it's usually the
    main relay. Cooling the interior of the car will restart it, or smacking
    the dash with the key in position II. Pay a geek to resolder your relay.
