Just fixed my 95 Integra, same problem. The contacts in the starter
solenoid are worn out. Need to remove starter and dissassemble solenoid
and clean or replace contacts. Not a big deal . Don't get a new
starter $$$$. I think the parts are about $25??
You can find parts and info he
http://www.nationsautoelectric.com/
I have no business interest in the vendor, I found them by searching
for Honda starter parts. Yes it will soon not start and leave you
