If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

How good, as far as what criteria? They worked fine.

Unique to Honda, they were cutting edge technology at the time.
Quite efficient for the time, and low emissions.

my neighbor lady had one of these cars and it was spotless the engine and trans had no leaks and no oil spots. and every time she thought something was bad it went to the dealer the car looked like it came off the showroom floor. then she had a stroke and couldn't drive anymore so the family gave the car to the grandson and he hot-rodded it and wrapped around the tree and yes he was drunk. boy was granma pissed
