Any S2000 specialist in Montgomery County?
With what everybody else said. Bilking CEL's are serious business. TOW it to a shop.

If you've been driving it on a blinking CEL, then my best advice is to start trolling...

Sorry for your misfortunes for certain, but you should never second guess a blinking CEL.

You should get this towed to someone who knows what they are doing. If he said that you have no spark on cylinder 4, I would focus on getting spark before worrying about swapping out the injectors. Are there any aftermarket parts on the car?

If you only bought it a month ago, the seller may have known there was a problem with it and you may be able to sue him to get your money back. Try to find out who the previous owner took it to for service or have the dealer put the VIN into the system and see if that will tell you anything. He may (stress may) have knowingly sold you a car w/ problems.

So the mechanic replaced coil packs and plugs and there is no spark in cyl 4? How does he know?
I was under inpression from the first post that ignition is ok, that's why i suggested injector idea. But if it looks like the wiring needs to be checked, did he check for the signal coming in to the coil on cyl 4?
But bottom line, if you are not mechanically inclined, take it to the shop...

As others have said a Blinking CEL is definitely not what you want to see. You need to tow it and not drive it, period.
I would def get a Honda dealer involved especially so they can pull up the National Service history to see what if anything was done to it previously. It's at least worth that for the small diagnostic fee they will charge.
