dude, that is so vague. she could have snaped a half shaft. ran out of gas, a number of things. we need more specifics.

did it still rev? did the revs go up high? did it still have throttle response but it was just really shitty? Did the car shut off (there was a recall for 97 ludes with the ignition switch shutting off for no reason and causeing the car to shut off in the middle of highway driveing, turning, pullin gout in traffic, anything, check with your honda dealer to see if that was fixed before you bought it, i just got the letter for it near the end of last year.
good luck...
