it also could be your igniter (inside the distributor) - they were actually recalled about 8 years ago. Honda can check thru your VIN whether or not yours was replaced...if not they will replace it for free. Honda towed my car 50 miles in 1997 to the nearest Honda dealer and paid for the repairs...all I had to do was pick the car up.

Some fact I had no clue about! Now I'm going to go check my igniter!
