Default 94 Civic engine sputter an low accel when driving

hi im new to tha forums an i have a problem with my 94 civic that been buggin me. Just recently mt engine has begun sputter when accelerating but my idle is fine. I just replace my fuel filter and im not gona say that i have treated my honda very well as i am a broke *** college student. I know that i need to replace my head gasket value as it is leaking but i was searching around an i think it might be my dizzy and rotor. any help or input would be greatly appreciated! here is a link to a video i made of the problem

What do the plugs look like? Light brown deposits? Gapped correctly? What brand and part # are you using?

Definitely sounds ignition related unless you're running tuned ECU which is adding too much fuel at tip in. Stock ECU?
