Prelude starting
My son has just bought a 1998 Honda Prelude 2.0i with 50000 miles and full
Honda service history. His problem is that when the engine is warm, and he tries to start it, the starter motor turns the engine, the engine seems to fire and then the starter motor stops, and the engine then quickly stalls. If the key is kept turned the starter will re-engage for a short time, but the starter stops almost immediately, and the engine does not run. I know most of the group is American and I don't think you got this model over there, so if you have any idea why this single OHC 2.0 injection engine, might be doing this, your help would be good. Thanks Hamish |

There was a massive recall in North America that included three of the Hondas I've owned. '97's and '98. 'Curly' |
