Ferrari Mailing List: Please help with no start condition?

[Tom Reynolds (kjtar]

Dear Listers,
        
Dear Gentle Listers,
        Wife's car has a stubborn and reoccuring problem.  She puts ignition 
key in, turns, no start. No cranking noise.  BUT, most of the time the car 
starts right up like it's supposed to.  
        Last Saturday she just drove from home to a clothing exchange, maybe a 
6 or 7 minute trip.  Parked car, did whatever, came out, tried repeatedly, car 
no start.  I came over, put key in ignition, varoom.  Starts right up.  Turned 
off car, tried again, started again.  Towed to repair facility, they couldn't 
duplicate the no start problem.  Picked up the car, had to start it twice, no 
problem.  Took car to her work so she could drive it home.  Guess what?  Yep. 
No start.  I couldn't even start it. Called tow truck, driver says when he got 
to the repair facility he was able to start it right up.

Car is '90 Acura Integra GS hatchback. Starting system (alternator, battery, 
starter, etc.) was pronounced OKAY.  Help?
