My old 1990 honda accord got a problem again. This baby can't be
started after I drive it for a while, but it can be jumped up at the
same time it failed to start by itself. If I leave it alone for a
couple of hours, it can be started again. Also the gas gauge (or meter)
is telling the wrong thing. I drove it to dead for several times. I
guess the gas meter is probably the gas sensor being bad. The start
problem might be a bad battery or bad main relay. I am not really sure
what exactly the problem is. Any body has the similar problem? Does the
battery quit when hot?
