I don't have an dx, but have you done a compression check yet? Might be a good place to start, see if there is much to work with.

compression test will tell you all,

HOWEVER

those d15b2's are a dime a dozen, i recently gave one away with nothing wrong with it because i was tired of tripping over it. many people swap these out.

you're in california, just look for a d15b2 or b1, the only difference is the cam and some other bolt on things that can be easily switched over.
