Help me, you all in the knows! Trouble starting, cranks but will not always start. Low mileage (56,000 original) but the babe is aging cranky... I bought a new main relay, but I cannot find where to take the original out. I have search internet wide and the one I have does not look like anything I see for Honda. HELP! Attaching a pic of the one purchased at auto store.

 

Does it have a carburetor, or fuel injection?

 

Fuel injection. Thank you.

 

On a 1988 to 1995, the main fuel injection relay is bolted to the side of the car under the dash-- just above the hood release lever. It also does not look like the one you bought, it is larger. So I can't say for sure about 1985.

 

Thank you. It is a puzzle. I have the Civic Service Manual and a Chilton Manual and neither are a help. And, the same item has three names!!! LOL
