I have a 1994 Honda that originally broke down due to the radiator overheating. As it turns out, there was no leak in the radiator and one of the hoses needed replacement. A few weeks later, it would not start in the driveway and was completely dead. I had it towed to a Honda dealer who said they fixed it. But now, I have a different problem: Every four days it will start on the first crank then after 20 SECONDS of a little rough running, it runs like a top. What is going on with this car? The mechanics want me to keep throwing parts and money at it!  
  
  
  
 ANY OTHER TIME IT WILL NOT START.
