'93 Accord Cold Start Problem Part II
How old and what is the make of the battery? Who tested it?
Do you have a multimeter, so you can do some basic checks of the battery and alternator, per the five ones listed at http://home.earthlink.net/~honda.lioness/id13.html ? I mostly would want to eliminate this as a possible cause. I am not saying it is likely thee cause.
