So I'm guessing that the spark plug that has been used for less than 3000 miles backed out and the vibrations caused the coil pack to fail and in turn grounded out the coilpack on the block of the engine and blew the ignition fuse and that's why the car will turn over but not fire? That's where my $ is right now so tomorrow I'm going to see if I can't find that fuse and hopefully its blown ....

Apparently these coils are universal between the other honda's. Might wanna call honda to double check, but they are the same, then here's a great deal for you. Check out the link and it appears the lowest price is $12.50 for one. Used ofcourse.

The "A" means less than 60k on them. "B" is over 60k. They normally have a warranty of some kind.

look if you wouldn't drive around every town near you racing and bouncing off 9k every 2 seconds maybe just maybe this wouldn't have happened.

GL bro give a ring later LMK what you find..




C ory- if the plug was still in a few threads and he got everything out of that area before he pulled the plug what could have possibly gotten into the cyclinder to mess it up? maybe nothing? maybe lots?

I assumed the same. Which is why I suggested him to double check to make sure.
