Starting problems when interior is hot!

I'm wondering if my old honda problems are coming back to haunt me. Had the exact same issue with my old '90 Honda Accord and it was the fuel pump relay under the dash. The solder would slightly seperate just enough when the interior's hot that it would prevent current flow.

Do the CL's have the same issue or a similar issue with another primary electronic component? Just cranks but no turnover.

Yes, they have the exact same issue. When it is hot out, the car won't start because some relay under the dash has poor solder and causes interference when starting. I bought the part from Acura for like $25 and have not had the hot season starting issue. (I'm in Phoenix, so it happened to me A LOT before I fixed the issue).

Do you remember which part it was specifically? I've looked through and i've heard people say "main relay", i've heard "fuel pump relay". i just want to make sure i buy the correct part the first time.
