I wanted to add that the car runs great but i was getting a few oddities in its idle so I figured its got to be a vacume leak, shot some starting fluid around the carb area and sure enough it is.. just have to pin point it exactly tomorrow..

Also I pulled all the plugs and replaced them and those plugs are perfect well perfect as used up plugs can look, I always pull the plugs they can tell alot about a motor..

still cant belive how tightthis motor sounds for 129,000 miles, sound smoother than many new cars.. This is my first Honda.. Im so impressed that they can make a car get 50MPG thats carbed and 20 years ago.. and 20 years later and 129,000 miles later the motor can sound that good.. WOW!!
