My car will not start. The starter turns, engine turns but does not catch. This seems to happen when the weather is hot. During the week it starts. On weekends (the last 2 it won't). It is later in the day on weekends when I try to start it and it has been hot both weekends. This problem seems to flare up when it is hot.

I have the same problem with my 93 Accord, it's the main relay switch. This happens because the interior of the car gets too hot and the relay malfunctions. Until you get it fixed leave the windows open a bit and park it in the shade if possible. If the car won't start then opening all the windows and allowing the interior to cool should allow it to start in 15-20 minutes.
