Yippee! I just got my significant other's 93 Honda Civic EX. The tow truck
guy said it was his 4th Honda for the day. He predicted it correctly. Bad
distributor. This is the headgasket of Hondas.

Tomorrow at 930am I have am appointment to repair a recalled ignition switch
on my daughter's 99 CRV 4wd. We were going 80mph when the thing suddenly shut
down. Pretty hairy considering it was in the middle of a snowstorm. Good
thing it's a recall item. Of course, the notice didn't come in until after we
took a maiden voyage in it.

Thank goodness the rest of my daily drivers are VW's.
