SOLD SOLD SOLD!

NEW PRICE 200.00 putting new car in its place!

So today is my day i say enough with old cars. Working on this car today and i did the front brakes and new valve cover after driving it today. Everything was fine until i notice the lights on the car were dim and so were the interior lights right then and there i remembered i forgot to connect the ground wire back to the valve cover. So i turned off the car connected the ground and now the car wont start. I searched apon this and found out it was the main relay. Personally im done fixing old shit especially something like a main relay on this car which is way in the dash. no thanks. So that being said i pass this on to someone else. The car runs strong and it recently passed the smog besides the idle was too high(1300) in park. Ac blows super cold. Like i said i drove this car all day today and had no problems. Until now. So im going to man up and take the car payment and buy a fit. Heres the stats below.
*Note car starts now. It is the main relay which im replacing today. Along with the throttle cable.*
Its a 1987 honda civic lxi *clean title*
Power windows power doors
Sunroof
Ice cold ac and power steering, working heater
Car recently passed smog except it needs the idle adjusted to be lower
Stock radio with working power antenna and the interior I say is a 8 out of 10.
the Body of the car is a 8 out of 10 due to paint. about to small half dime size dents on the hood.
The car has been well kept up with. The original manual and everything. I drove this car to la and back from mira loma 3 times with 25.00 on the tank.

Now the bad.
The paint its the original grey color but its going away
The main relay needs to be replaced which you can buy from autozone. Because of the hot weather the main relay since its the original one from the car when its hot inside the car when its been sitting out in the baking sun will cause the car not to start. You would have to roll down the windows for about 5 min let it cool inside the car and it'll start. This only occurs once out of a full day usually when I go to work around 11am and I have had the windows rolled up and its super baking from the inside. I get off work in the later afternoon I just turn the key and it doesent do it because its cool inside. Weird yes I know but once you replace the relay you won't have to do that and the car will start. This is a known common problem with the 3g accords after ages of use.
