Left tail light caused the fire during the driving.

Distributor problem, screeching, emission system indicator light, engine stall. Not covered under recall because it has more that 75000 miles and six years. Unethical behavior on the part of the company. Recall must be extended.
It seems that the ignition failiure is common on all 1990 to 1993 honda models. Such failiure is extremely dangerouse and can cause a major accident had it happened on the freeway, because once the ignition fails the car just dies. The federal safety agency should look into this matter and maybe force honda to issue a recall. The federal safety agency should not wait for a high number of fatalities in order to open an investigation, prevention is better than cure.
Believe failure of distributor while vehicle in motion caused the oil pump to stop functioning and resulted in lack of oil pressure and resulting in engine camshaft (lack of oiling) breaking and destroying cylinder head and engine, resulting in total engine replacment.
While driving on the freeway at normal highway speeds, the engine of my 1993 accord completely stalled (no power). After quick troubleshooting, the car repair facility, s&r service center in vista, ca , determined that the igniter had failed and replaced it. After replacement the car started and now appears to be running normally.
