after cutting off will it start right back up or do you have to wait for it to cool down before it'll restart?

I would go with new distributor. They shouldn't cost more than $200. ecu should be good if you're starting right back up.

I was at a light when it shuts off but when I was driving it again it would go around 25mph den it would just slow down and when it stop, it would turn off. Wat I did is stop when its bout to turn off and turn the car off and started it back up so I can speed up and its just going really slow...

Yea it does turn back on rite after

do what i said and call honda and see if it has had the ignition recall fixed. mine was doing the exact same thing. this way you can stop wasting money on stuff that is not needed and a phone call is free.
