Electrical problem
1991 Honda CRX 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

The car starts up, but I have to hold the key to keep it running or it dies. Even if I ease back the key a little bit it dies out. The car has died on me while idling at a stop light. I am not too sure what to do or where to start.

You need an ignition switch.
