sounds like the main relay is bad. It's a small grey box under the driver side dash, about $60 from the dealership.

I have to agree with teal dx, my car was doing the exact same thing until I replaced the main relay. The 92-95 main relay failure is a very common problem. Honda re-designed the relay, so once you replace it, it shouldnt go bad again.
