My car used to be really hard to start after I got gas to, and sometimes when I was on a hill, but after I replaced my starter I've had no problems except for the Main Relay.

Get some fuel injector cleaner ($4). That helped me when my car did the same thing....also, buy a new fuel filter ($13) at Honda.

I'm bettin' it's the main relay, it's a very common problem. I had the same problem, and it was in fact my main relay.

DO NOT get the fuel injector cleaner. They don't work worth shit! I heard it fucks your car even more. IF you gonna get them cleaned take it to a shop and have them do it.

Injector Cleaner
Don't use the injector cleaner. Where i work we make the injector cleaner for prestone. We make just about every product that prestone has out. The injector cleaner and the gas treatment is shit ! The injector cleaner and gas treatment and 0-60 booster is all the same stuff ! The same goes for oils most of it is all the same. The extened life and the stuff for high mileage engines is all the same oil as the regular. All oil has to meet the same standards the only difference is a small additive package that varies from company to compnay i make Quaker State and theirs are pretty good. It does pretty good in the testing that is done in the lab.

well theres 2 ways...easy and hard. the easy way is to go to honda and buy a new one. The hard way...but cheaper is to remove the main relay and open it up....inside there is a circuit board touch a hot solder gun to all the lead contacts, heat them up and it will melt and fill in where the solder is cracked. Or you can look at the points through a magnify glass and see which ones are cracked.
thats what we do at work anyway....gunnmen01
