I'll do it again. I was so sure it was the CV joint because the front-right wheel has a lot more rolling friction when free-wheeling, and that's where the leaking cv joint was. Oh well. I'll post-up my results. Thanks for the input.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
