Probably your electronic ignition module is dying. The problem will become
more frequent until your wife will want a new Honda :) Actually, its pretty
easy to solve, although I kept my MG and did give my wife a new Honda :(
Last time I checked, the electronic ignition module (the little black or
aluminum box bolted under the coil) was NLA, however if you take it apart,
inside is a standard GM Delco electronic ignition module from a X-Car! They
cost about $15 bucks at any (YUK) American parts store.
