Default 89 accord carburated runs rough at stop in drive, but fine in neutral

i changed the cap, rotor, plugs and wired, and put a k n n air filter, car still runs rough at stoplights if i keep it in drive, fine if i slap her in neutral, also seems to bog out a little when i put her back in drive.
any ideas?

Pinch off the PCV valve. If it runs better, Its a good chance the PCV valve "guts" have fell through. Common on this car. A new valve will take care of it.
