Ron J........You're THE man

I'm sure you're use to the phrase tho, eh?..... The night the car died I bought a coil 'just in case' cuz a buddy came by to check some things (who worked for Honda as a mech at one time). He said it tested good, so I took it back unused.I've been looking at everything else until I was ready to give. I didn't realize why you said to check the wire in the dist until it dawned on me that power was getting all the way there, through fuses and all. You pretty much eliminated everything up to it, which was a relief. I did give myself a scare tho,in the haste of wanting to here the car finally crank I forgot the rotor.......lol. I thought to myself I'd put the car on a wrecker and take it to Honda. Scratched my head for a while then couldn't remember putting it in. Found it and whataya know......they really help a car crank.

Thanks again man, I went to forum after forum trying to find some kind of answer. You were the only one that steered me back to something I thought was already ruled out. We're lucky to have you here.
