93 prelude 5 speed cranking but not starting

[gelcol]

Just came from mojave airport to Los angeles california 100 miles one way trip .stop over the post office to get some mail.
try to re-start the car, will crank and rotate but not start. after I wait for a little while then it starts? I'm not sure if this is a main relay hear no clicking sound .
happens once in a while around two time per week.and in some cases I have to push and shift it on 2nd gear to release the clucth to start.
if it is main relay how is this look like and the location thanks!.

Hey, i have a 1995 honda prelude SI and all went through a HEADACHE with the EXACT same problem. I found it to be the Fuel Filter. Crazy huh? Basically, if it tries to wind over, and you DO hear a slight CLICK before the car starts (ignition relay) then i can bet you its ur fuel filter. It's about 20 to 30 bucks at ur honda dealership. It's worth it especially if you havn't replaced it in a while. Good Luck!

you guys should check the main relay thats under the dash on the driver side.
Its actually a common problem with some hondas.
I'm on another forum, and there is a how to write up of how to fix it.
