Hello dear members,
I havea 1992 honada accord DX 4-door, the problem is the car does start and it gets hot {after a few minutes} die out and I have to wait an hour or two to start it again. As of now, I change the ignition module, check {did not change} the cap.
I need some before taking the car to a shop for big money.

Thanks

Don't start the car, until you fix what's causing it to overheat. Allowing an aluminum head engine to overheat can warp the head and cause valve damage. It's better to have the car towed than allowing it to overheat. All it takes is once and the damage can be done. Such a repair bill could easily be $2,000+. Read the link below and see if it helps:
