The engine continues to crank over easily. Testing the wires into the distributor show current is being received, and the wires to the ignitor have current. All of my sources point to the ignitor (possibly the coil which will be tested with an ohmmeter). The car has 160,000 miles. We are stationed in Germany, so the Honda dealers are used to German spec. vehicles. Plus things take forever here in Germany, so its quicker to order and do it yourself.
"nothing compares"? Please, My dad owned Mercedes for 25yrs and I recently drove my uncle's '98 2.3 Kompressor (supercharged). Trust me, there 's nothing special about these cars and I can't see paying that much money for them. I drove my dad's C320 many times and his older 280. They 're regular cars, not agile (sometimes feel like boats), don't communicate the road to the steering wheel that much and are slow. I 'm not putting them down. I just think you can get nicer cars for less money, more powerful and with better handling and as good a reliability. (I just remembered my uncle's '87 Diesel Turbo Station wagon. My brother and I used to make fun of it all the time - what a boat and slow!)

So as not to intimidate newcomers or make the keepers of our software unhappy, I've frozen this and begun a new topic where we can continue our conversation.
