Default honda accord problem

I have an 87 honda accord DX and it is having a timing/running prob i cant figure out. When cold it idles at below 1000, and drives kinda ok, but sluggish/missing/no pwer. when it is warm most of the time will have a high idle around 3000 some times it will drop down to 1000-15000. from a stop when warm first has power but second acts like it gets too much fuel and bogs out, 3rd gets power and up. wile driving at times will miss/serge/ bog down and slow in speed. It seams to have goten worse cense i changed the plugs, wires, cap/rotor and fule filter

Can anybdy help??

Maybe u should check if the spark plugs were properly gapped. When you changed the plugs/wires did you do one at a time? I'm asking because maybe there is a chance that you put the wrong plug wires from the distributor into the wrong cylinders.

Double check it with this link:
