Default 98 civic ex bogs at low rpm

like the title says. I can feel it loosing power and bog until it gets up to about 3k. just did an oil change, spark plugs, and poured some injector cleaner. or is it because i put it regular gas this last time??? lmk thanks!

OP, have when was the last time you checked the timing on your car? Is the dizzy still the orignal oem dizzy? I'd check your timing, cat, and 02 senser. Could also be a fuel problem.
