    My 1999 Honda Accord is ready for a major tune-up at the local
    Honda Dealership. I follow their schedule related to service--even
    if I don't always agree. For example, I think that it is not
    necessary to adjust the valves during the tune-up. I usually tell
    them to do everything except adjusting the valves.

    I have seen many problems mentioned in this newsgroup and in many
    cases the solution was to repair or replace the main relay.

    During the major tune-up that will be done next month--should I
    have them replace the main relay to avoid having problems with it
    in the years to come.

    I have a 1999 Honda Accord EX--55,000 miles (approximate)

    I should note that I can easily afford it but won't have it done
    if you say that it's a waste of money.

    If ain't broke....
    don't do it; if it fails, do it

    There would be no guarantee that the new relay will not get the same
    problem.

    for this age of car, i wouldn't worry. keep a spare in the glove box if
    you really must, but i don't think it's a priority.
