Default Help me figure out this problem - no start '90 accord LX.

I write:
|around town, however, the car will start when jumpe started. Car is towed home

OPPS. This should say the car will **NOT** start when jumped started.



-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|The details (long):
|In the last few weeks, the car has died on multiple occasions around town
|and on a long road trip. The car would just lose power. Pull off the road and
|am not able to start it. In all cases it was a drained battery. Charge
|it up or jump start it and we're good to go. Same thing happens recently
|around town, however, the car will start when jumpe started. Car is towed home
|and we charge battery fully. The car cranks vigoriously, but will not start!
|This is now the second alternator so I no longer think this is the cause (at
|least not directly). As mentioned above, I've eliminated a few possibilities
|and figure it might be (in order of likelyhood) - ECU (computer), main relay,
|or injectors.
