    Go to your local library and see if they have a subscription to the Alldata
    database. This database contains technical service bulletins (TSB) issued
    by Honda. The TSB that covers this problem is #99-085.

    I forgot to mention that this TSB is listed as an Emissions System Recall
    and the title of the TSB is "Recall - EGR Port Clogging/Warranty
    Extension." This implies that you should be able to get the work done under
    warranty.

    The warranty is good to 80 k miles. Mine has 91 k.
