My 1994 honda accord coupe has exactly the same problem. If you can get the car going uphill it helps, but it's getting worse in that it happens with more and more fuel in the car. My gauge is also messed up. Did you determine the cause of this?

'92 Accord Starting Problem by bowti57327

I own a '92 Accord LX Automatic w/ 173,000 miles. The car would turn over but not start this morning (10 degrees F). I have just replaced the battery & several months ago I replaced the distributor cap, rotor, plugs, plug wires & the ignition control module, located inside the distributor (the ignition control module was bad). I did not change out the external coil. The fuel pump is original but is still working & the same with the alternator. I am wondering if the external coil is bad. I checked the external coil back when I replaced the ignition control module & other items listed above & it did not meet the resistance specs. of my Haynes manual but it still worked. I am hoping that when it warms up it will start.
 
Any thoughts??

Small upate to my '92 Accord starting problem. The outside temperature warmed up somewhat & the car started & stalled several times but was able to get it moved into the garage. My thought is that the external coil is on its way out. Does this sound like an ignition coil issue to anybody? I am going to do some checks on the external coil this evening.

Claire (Host),
 
The title if this forum suggests any and all Accord Coupes. The only posts here are about 1992 and 1994 vehicles. That is very misleading.
 
These posts should be moved to the Honda Accord (1990-1993) Maintenance and Repair or Honda Accord (1994-1997) Maintenance and Repair forums and this one made Read Only.

Thanks, but we can have a separate Coupes discussion for Starting and Stalling problems. Just because we only have posts from a couple of the Accord generations doesn't mean others are not welcome.
 
We'll let this one stand.

Pat,
 
You wrote "we can have a separate Coupes discussion for Starting and Stalling problems"
 
Please clarify why generic starting and stalling concerns would be related to the shape of the vehicle's body. Sedans with identical engines would be no different than coupes.
 
Also, why would owners of sixth, seventh or eighth generation Accords with more modern engines be interested in reading a forum about recent problems that two people experienced with engines built thirteen to fifteen years ago? Those folks would find much more support in the forums dedicated to their generations of vehicles. I believe that the title of this forum is misleading and useless to most members.

Sorry, the discussion will stay. People can use it or not, no reason to take it away. You can email me if you want to discuss this further, but this particular line of conversation isn't helpful to anyone, so let's drop it. Thanks!

I have this problem also. I changed out the fuel sending unit and it did not work. Any luck with a solution?

2000 Accord Coupe Not Starting by raprider

I have a 2000 Accord Coupe V6 with about 85k miles. In the past 2 weeks, it has been giving me intermittent trouble starting. For instance, 2 weeks ago, it started fine in the morning and I drove to the office (6 miles). In the afternoon, I got in the car and it turned over but then stalled out. I was unable to get it started again. Its not the battery (2 years old), since it was definitely cranking, and all acc's worked fine. When the AAA guy showed up, he fiddled with the battery cables a bit, said there was some corrosion, and it started up okay after that.
 
Everything was fine for about a week, then last Saturday the same problem, this time in a restaurant parking lot. Crank, catch, stall. I opened the hood, wiggled the cables a bit, and it started up.
 
Everything was again fine for about a week, until yesterday afternoon. I drove to work in the a.m., left after an hour to go to the dentist, and then came back to work an hour later. After work, the car didn't even turn over this time, just cranked. I fiddled with the cables again, disconnected them from the battery, wiped the terminals clean, re-attached the cables, and nothing. Just crank. Had to have the car towed to my mechanic. Spoke with him today, and he's been able to start it with no problem several times through the day.
 
Not sure where to look. Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks,
Rap
 
p.s. I couldn't find a forum specific to Maintenance and Repair covering my model year!
