Engine Fails/Kills

[preferredduck]

I ran into this problem before on a customers' car. Everyone already mention the main relay. If you replaced this and it still dies on you, check the distributor and your ignition swtich, I had a customer car that I checked everything, replaced the main relay and rebuilt the distributor even tested it on another car..wasn't it. Come to find out when I replaced the ignition switch, it solved the problem. Honda got some recall on them on certain model.

correct they do. i checked that as a possible problem for my si but honda said no recall for my car?

Organizationxiii: Dont think there is a recall on yours, but if you check everything (main relay, distributor) and it's good, then check the ignition switch last.
