Howdy from Norcal. 1990 Wagon.
Eric B
Band Wagon
Hello, everyone! My name is Eric and I'm a new wagon owner. After 25 vehicles I can't believe this is my first Honda.
A couple weeks ago I paid too much for my 90 Wagon, but it drove so nice and is clean and original, has cold a/c and has only 90k miles. Turns out the seller was a shady mofo and the car started to overheat the first time I drove it an hour to work. New headgasket and radiator and now it seems to rub fine. I really enjoy driving it. So easy to park, great mpg, tons of room inside for gear, what's not to like?
Anyway I plan to drive it daily all over the bay area, and add racks so we can put our kayaks on top.
Wave if you see a goofy bearded white guy in a grey 90 wagon. And don't buy a car from a fat douchebag named Allan. If you see him please kick him in the junk for me.

It is running great except that the idle once in awhile ramps up to 1300rpm from 600. I saw an article about cleaning the valve doohicky with carb cleaner so I'll be doing that soon. Also have new plugs, rotor, cap ready to go on as soon as I am back on my feet.
Also, what is the round thing for that is under the rear bumper? Towing?? Towing what???
I'm in Fremont, but most every week I commute to San Rafael, Cupertino, and San Carlos.
Also, change of plans: I am buying my neighbors ford ranger as a kayak vehicle so I won't have to drip saltwater all over my Wagon and mess with the mpg by adding racks.
