93 civic hot engine does not restart

93 civic with ~200,000Km. The engine would not restart , or start and
stall
immediately, after it is warmed up. I need to wait about 3~5 min before
being able to restart and go.

It happened twice recently. We stopped at the bank ABM for 5 minutes
and
came back out , the car started but stalled immdiately. Tried several
time
to start but no go. Decided to wait for a bit and it started fine. The
battery did not seem to be the problem as it cranked over well and the
weather is hot and dry.

Did anyone experience this before ? Where should I start to look for
problem
? The fuel line corroded and was serviced in January this year. The
corroded
part was cut off and replaced with a rubber line, since it was not high
pressure.

Thanks for the help...

Hey, we're not making fun of you. It's just that this is the #1 problem
with any Honda. Reports of this peak in the summer months.

The Main Relay lives under the dash, above the hood latch. The solder
cracks over time, creating the symptoms you feel. You can repair if you
know how to solder, or replace at about $70.

That's where I am going to start the repair, the main relay. A big
thank to TeGGeR and all the contributors. You helped me fix the tail
light problem where the ground wire corroded in the socket connection.
