    Woohoo!! It's running again. The starter had to be replaced. Honda dealer wanted $350.00, the rebuilt starter from the local parts house was $99.00!! That price I can handle. Thanks for your input. Have a great and relaxing Sunday.

    Glad to hear it worked out for you and it wasn't too expensive. Enjoy your Sunday as well!!

    Good thing it wasn't the flux capacitor. Those can be expensive!

    Jeez,

    My oscillating hyperbole tensioner went one time, and it cost a lot more than that! *cough*

    Worse than that, hope that you never have to replace the 'muffler bearings'!

    It does pay to shop around for car parts

    Just a side note... The reason I am driving an older honda now is because we got rid of our SUV. I have been driving those rigs for years and what with the cost of gas and the economy in the toilet, and my husbands business is at a stand still (construction), it seemed the practical thing to do!!! I think there should be atleast one car that is owned out right in these tough times. Besides, I have teenagers in the house and this will be a great learner car. It has 103,000 miles on it and we spent $1300 for it--plus the starter now. The kids are waxing it right now. It's great to have older kids now that will do that.

    That is excellent. Not bad for $1400... and somehow having it washed and waxed just makes it seem to run better too.
