Check the coil. Sometimes with old coils, the resistance changes as a
function of temperature. More than likely, it is the ignition switch....

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?
Thanks,
Tom Reynolds
Tulsa, OK

Maybe it's a worn out ignition switch?

A similiar incident happened with my girlfriend's VW Golf.

Tom - rename the car.  Christine is not a good name for a '90 Acura Integra 
GS hatchback.  Heh heh

Call the dealer, ask them for a phone diagnosis....they usually will give
you the most common faults.  Like Gary Reed, I would suspect the ignition
switch...they run about $120 for a Honda Accord, and a relatively simple
DIY.  I would think an Integra is equally simple.
