Default '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.

Here is the address of the original post. I know it's long but it
will bring a little insight into how this all went down.

I am very willing to do the tool box thing!
