Welcome to the forum, Lawrence.

For the benefit of those of us who aren't fluent in Hondaspeak, what are the main differences between the dead engine and the replacement that will help fuel economy?

So, no results yet, I take it. Hope you'll enter your car in the garage and start a fuel log if you're going to stick around.
