Question Check Engine Light Comes On

The "check engine" light comes on in my 91 Honda Accord SE once I start driving. Also sometimes the engine turns over but will not start until I let it rest and then sometimes it will start. I had a new distributor installed but the problem continues. Today I bought a new battery and the saga continues. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

4gen accords are known for having problems with Main relay and Ignitor problems. so most likely its one of them giving you a problem.
search accord forum (not Accor V6 forum) and you find what to do.

it would work, if it had one.

most of Hondas don't have MAS, they use MAP. MAP located on throttle body, and not in air intake tube like MAS.

many things can cause a check engine light to come on. find out what code it is, then it will be easier to help you.
