If you can try and do a DIY on replacing timing belt because that would be helpful for me.

Damn I need to do mine too.

Glad to hear thats all it was. If only Honda had made better coil/ignitors for the civics, damn things would never die.

Congrats on not having to spend the big bucks on a new head. Id much rather have to mess with a timing belt than replace a head because of bent valves.
