My wife took my '99 Accord sedan, 5-speed this morning to work about 30 miles. When she stoped for coffee the car started running like $hit. Every tiem she accelerated it would buck, coming into toll booths it almost stalled and was bucking, CEL came on and was blinking. What does this sound like?

Could it be water in the gas? I know these cars don't have fuel filters and the tank is almost empty? Maybe drygas and a fill-up?

i had something similar..but it ended up that my car just needed an oil change.

as stupid as it sounds just check

 

REALLY!! It must have needed it REAL bad to do that. Was it low on oil over filled or just VERY dirty?? The oil in the car is only 2,700 miles old?

 

Ended-up being the #1 cyl. ingnition wire was bad with only 10k on it. What JUNK, for $80 this Silicone set was short lived!!
