Re: Cdi
It gets pretty expensive changing parts. Why do you think the CDI is bad, there is no test for it and there are checks to be made to the components it uses. Have you done those? What are the symptoms? I have yet to replace a CDI on a Honda. Reading further, I believe the mechanic saw you coming. Why would he want a used, not functioning CDI? Because as Tohatsu Guru says, Honda has no core charges for those items.
