It was the first time the AA mechanic [Tim from Banbury] had been to a Honda. I had to point to the starter button - he kept trying to turn the key. He asked a lot about the car having owned a CR - X some years ago.
After realising the problem was low fuel pressure, he rang Avonvale Honda at Stratford for advice, specifically where to find the inertia switch. If anyone doesn't know its on the right hand side of the dash [sitting in the drivers seat]. Open the driver's door and prise off the side panel.
Resetting the switch resolved the problem that time and I drove away happy but that happiness was shortlived!
I have nothing but praise for Tim. He did all the right diagnostic checks before diving under the bonnet. I shall remember him uttering "But Honda's don't go wrong!".
