    My 1998 Honda Accord (150,000 miles; 4 cylinder manual) will crank, but not turn over.

    If my engine catches during the first crank, it runs like a champ. But if I stop cranking too soon during the first crank before the engine turns over, it will not start during subsequent crankings.

    I checked to see if the spark plugs were wet from possible flooding, and they were all completely dry.

    Typically, if I wait an hour or so without trying to start it again, and press the accelerator all the way to the floor, it may start; or, if I wait until the next morning, it may start.

    Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    Replace the Ignition Control Module (ICM) and coil:
