Wife had an 86 Honda crx. Had a crazy looking carb on it that had a bad base gasket. Couldn't find the right gasket kit at the parts stores so I broke down and went to a dealer. Parts guy said 3 barrel or throttle body? I said um? He came out and looked and a few later the entire service department was gawking at it's one barrel carb. Kept asking where did you get that? It came with the car. Said Honda on it but the part number didn't come up on the computer or any books. I ended up using some cardboard off of a notebook. Worked like a champ. Car got 60mpg on the highway till 5th gear went out. Took me two months of trial and error to find a tranny to fit it. Dropped it down to 45mpg. Makes me laugh at the hybrid commercials. Always had a he'll of a time finding parts to fit it. Man was I glad when she sold it
