94 legend problem
 

have 1994 legend GS sometime when i try to start eng. it will turn over but won't start, if i pat accelerator a few times it usually will start what could be causing this, thanks for any help or suggestions

When you first try to start only turn the key to the acc position (all check lights etc.), you should hear the fuel pump prime and build the fuel pressure. If you don't hear the fuel pump humm, then your problem could be the main relay. The main relay is known to start failing because of broken solder points especially when it is hot out. The relay can be fixed by soldering or just replacing with new one. Sometimes if you give the lower left dash a tap it will start working again a few times.

thanks ari one, recovering from surgary will try as soon as i can

Well that may be my prob as well i have 2 acura ledends a 93 and 89 the 93 has probs starting when it is a hot day. and the 89 has probs starting but mainly when it has been ran a bit. this sould like the same prob on both?

i'm back on the foad, had to replace fuel pump and relay
