My car's seemed a little sluggish lately, but I thought maybe it was just the air tank and 3 toolboxes in the back :lol:

No such luck - finally threw a check engine code for "camshaft timing over-retarded" = most likely a dead variable cam timing solenoid.

Not *really* looking for a co-drive (I should spend the weekend getting the Honda done to daily-drive while I wait for parts).

Can someone handle tech? Bernie?

Dang, that sucks. I'd offer you a co-drive in the Integra, but Mike will be co-driving with me and we already know my seat doesn't go far enough forward for you.
