I'll take a look at it in the morning. Does any of this explain the sudden increase in RPMs though? It seemed as if the engine could not handle the RPMs and just kill switched itself. At least one good thing came out of this though, tonite after work was extreme downpour, high winds and thunderstorm...

It sounded like it was all of a sudden running at much higher RPMs. It did that for a couple of seconds and the...

NEED help!

My idiot friend put mixed gas/oil fuel into my honda spree when he was borrowing it today. I guess he drove a little ways on it fine until it bogged down and died.
