Default 91 Civic DX

I Have a Question about my Civic, it was givin to me for free so i know nothin about it before i got it, it ran okay for about 3 weeks and then it just started having problems, when it gets really hot outside it dies kinda like its vapor locking and refuses to restart again for like 35 minutes which can really suck in the middle of town and stuff, has anyone else had problems like this? or have any ideas on how to fix this?

Also i need to replace 2 of my motor mounts but i dont have the money to buy them if i goto a junk yard that my g/f's step dad owns would the mounts off of an older carb'd civic or carb'd accord work? or not

Any 88-91 Civic or CRX mounts should work fine as long as they are the same kind of tranny as you have (manual or auto).

As for your problem sounds like a main relay gone very bad...

Ok i can get the motor mounts tomorrow, and i think i will give the relay a try is there anyway that i can pull out my relay and look at it to tell if its warped or anything? or should i just replace it?

Thanks

The soldering on them breaks apart. There is a way to fix it but honestly I would go to the dealer and buy a new one since they were redesigned and the new ones won't break.
