Fuel pump relay? Famous for having intermittent problems when they start to go in some Hondas.
This very common and more so in a hot car.
main relay buried in the drivers kick panel, when the car wont start, kick the panel! repeatedly.

when you turn your ignition on the compuer send power to the relay for about 3 seconds, if you kick it within that time it will prime and start. to fix it you can buy a new one(kinda expensive) or you can take it out and resolder by adding some new solder while youre at it.

The connections that come through the circuit board develop very small cracks and quit cunducting. this is alllll over the internet with pics and how to's. good luck.
