    Honda Accord won't start sometimes
    I have a 92 Accord that won't start sometimes.I have found that if I pump the gas pedal while I'm cranking it, the car starts every time.But if I don't mash the gas first, it acts like it want's to start for just a second and then just starts winding and then will not start at all no matter if I mash the gas or not. After that, I can usually let it sit for about 30 minuets and then crank it.

    . Check for codes--such as Throttle Position Sensor or MAP Sensor.
    . Ensure fuel filter, spark plugs, distributor cap, plug wires, and rotor have been recently replaced.
    . Perform K-Test on ECM
    . Remove and test igniter and coil at AutoZone (free).
