Would like some expertise on a small matter
I just joined tonight and have been browsing and seeing alot of peoples views on assorted parts and what not. Ive got the dreaded MisFire CEL code 71 - 74 (yes all four of them) and Im dabbling into getting distributor cap, rotary button, plugs, and wires.
Input im asking, what plug / ignition wires would you all personally recommend. Ive used NGK before and they seemed to function well. How about Moroso, are they any good as well? I ran NGK on my swapped H22 accord I had years ago with a MSD ignition coil (after converting to external coil.)
Ive used Denso plugs for years so im probably sticking with those, but Im unsure if the F 22 SOHC VTEC will need dual ground plugs, or just "plain jane" plugs. Advice on preference of plugs?
Thank you in advance

What you can do is pull the plugs and check them for wear and gap.
If the plugs are worn, regap them and reinstall, see if the misfire goes away. If not, more than likely the EGR ports/manifold are carbon fouled and need some cleaning.
On the 94-97 F22 cars this is very easy, and requires no investment in parts. Check the Accord FAQ at the top of the page on how to clean.

I prefer Denso Iirdium plugs, the small fine tip allows for a faster consistent ignition light off, they will not wear in 80Kmiles, and do not require excessive energy to spark. This allows more power to go into the actual spark for better combustion.
HorsePower TV did do a comparison showing E3 plugs but they did not state what the other brands were. Also E3 plugs have a much larger area of the plug/spark blocked by the shrouding of the mini stone henge ground strap.
Cap and rotor, stick with factory bits.

So I swapped out the ignition control module. Did awesome until....it got to operating temperature. Then poof, cel on again. What would make it turn on after warming up? It was running fine, smooth as could be. It's making it run so rich I can smell fuel. It misses as well.
