Default I have a 1993 honda civic dx with a 1.5 ltr engine, when it gets hot out the car won't start.?

My 1993 honda civic with a 1.5 ltr engine wont start when it is very warm out. I have had this problem for the last 5 years. I read someone else's posting saying to hit the dashboard on the drivers side because the fuel pump relay is in there, but I have gone to other sites looking to buy that part and it turns out that the relay is actually built into the fuel pump from what I gather. What do I do? And is the fuel pump relay in the dash or the fuel tank with the fuel pump?

I dunno about what to do, but man I HATE cars like that. I use an old volvo, and it does the same thing. If it's a hot day and I have to stop to get gas, I can count on it not starting. It has ruined my day more than once. My advice is to get a reliable car, and use your current one for target practice

Should be mounted to the side of the metal frame in front of the drivers door a little into the dash. Here it is for 24.00 on ebay. Thats what it looks like also. If this doesn't fix the problem, change your ECU. Any questions, e-mail me.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HONDA...spagenameZWDVW
