My suspicions are that the shop doesn't want to admit the distributor they
replaced two weeks ago has a faulty componet. If so they would be out some
$$$. If thats the case, I'll go back to speak with them after the next shop
hopefully makes the repair.

Thanks

Another thought - newer Hondas have had a lot of problems with ignition
switches (the actual switch on the back of the key cylinder). Did they
check for that?

Which means? One of my co-workers bought a Toyota six months ago. It had
thirteen miles on it when he picked it up. Two days ago it was towed to
the shop because it broke the timing belt.

I know, he shoulda bought a Honda instead, but even timing belts on
those are supposed to last longer than six months.
