Honda Car Forum

We bought one of the first Honda Elements. We're in our 60s. We love this
car. The first problem we've ever had with it showed up last Thursday. Ran
like it had water in the gas. A lot of water. Cost $761.00 to fix. Replaced
the injectors, platinum spark plugs and some other stuff. Seems to run
better than new now. The service department thinks someone put diesel in it.
My wife fired someone awhile back and they vowed revenge so I fugure they
must have poured something in the gas tank. And, now I have found out that
you can NOT put a locking gas cap on the Honda Element. Still gonna get
another one anyhow. But I understand you can't get the black clading
anymore. I like that.

Just thought I'd let you guys know.
