Icon6 Rough engine running

2001 Accord VP 2.3L Powertrain all stock. Intermittently has hard time starting. Sometime starts quick, sometimes not. Goes to smooth idle but as soon as I press the throttle it chokes, sputters or dies. If I can get the car moving above about 2500rpm it smooths out again.

Replaced the dual sensors under the pulleys for the Crank and knock sensors. Rechecked timing and balance belt alignment. New plugs, wires cap, and rotor. But problem was there before replacing them.

intermittent codes:1399, 300, 301, 302, 303, 304

And yes, I know those codes all point to ignition. But WHAT in the ignition. I have a used distributor on order from EBAY I'm going to try. But beyond that... what else have I missed.
