I had the same problem on my 94Integra. Some Honda starters allow
replacement of the starter solenoid,some don't.Mine didn't,but I found a
place online that sold me the rebuild parts for the solenoid,only $30 PPD.

It was a bitch getting the lower starter bolt out(no room for a big enough
wrench),it was frozen into the block.I'd use anti-seize on the bolt threads
when reinstalling it.
