Also having inconsistent starting issues.

Just giving a quick update. Would have updated sooner, but just had my first kid on the first.

Was still having starting issues up until this past Sunday. Then was left stranded behind an Arby's because the starter finally decided to die. Looked all over for a replacement, and finally found one the next day a few towns a away. Get it mounted, and the it won't crank, but the starter is spinning strong. Remounted several times, to make sure nothing got fouled up, and still have the same issue. Finally decided to have it towed to a shop to have it checked out, and have the #1 spark plug retapped.

Tow truck over 3 hours to get it to the shop, so hopefully I'll know what is going on with it tomorrow.

Last update on this issue hopefully...

Just changed out the Main relay this morning. Took me forever to even find it despite the fact that I have no coin tray to block my view. Starting much better as of now, let's just hope this solves the issue permanently.

EDIT:

Looks like I spoke too soon, and either I ordered the wrong relay from NAPA, or this is not what is causing my problems. Just spent another 15 minutes and finally got it started in time to barely make it work this morning. NAPA told me that there were like 3 different relays, and the one I got cost me about $65. If the service wasn't so bad at my local Honda Dealership, then I'd just take it to them and tell them to fix it.

Anyone live around Western North Carolina that might be able to help me out one weekend to get this figured out once and for all?

Final Update:

Everything is fixed, Coolant Temp Sensor went bad, and was causing the inconsistent starting issues. Now, the only thing that I'm needing to get is new fuel injector O-rings. The current O-Rings are shot, and leaking a bit of gas, so getting them replaced ASAP.

Then to finally start working on actually getting some horsepower to this car, and finding some replacement parts for the interior.
