I have a 1981 Honda Prelude and the fuel pump relay went out. Where can I get another or find an interchange to fit? This car has a 4-cylinder with manual tranny and 99,000 miles.

Go to car-part.com and search for that part. They will give you a number of years and those are usually direct replacements. Also the parts stores are pretty good at figuring these out as well.

Boy do I look bad. They do not even carry it and I have a hard time trying to find one on the web. What does Honda say and how much is it?

Can they atleast look up the part number for you. That number could be searched on. Here is another though as well. Try going to car-part.com and find a common part from the Prelude. Get a list of yards that have Preludes and then call their 800 numbers and ask them for this specific part. They should be able to help that way.

Ask Honda for the fuel pump relay part number and search that number. Use car-part.com to find yards with Preludes, then call them about this relay; parts stores may also help cross-reference it.
