My Accord quit running on my way home yesterday. Was running great and then
just died. Would crank but not fire, if I let it set for about 1 hr., it
will fire up but run for only about 45 seconds and die again. Any
suggestions as to what the problem might be?

Now that I think of it, this also happens with the igniter.

If you can hear the fuel pump running when you turn the key to the
point where you light up the dash lights, I'd bet it's the ignitor. bob

It just happened on my 97 Accord and it was the igniter.
