Default Sputtering on startup on my 96 ex?

So today when I woke up late this evening to goto work I went to leave and started up my car. Noticed right off the bad something was messed up. You can feel the motor vibrating inside the car and when you give it some gas 1k-3k rpm range its like a sputter kinda feeling like something ignition wise. Like it was cutting out very quickly. So I was like whatever I need to get to work so I continue to drive it and get down the block and the problem is gone. Car is idling normally and driving fine.

by the way just happened once so far since I have yet to be back in my car yet being at work and all.. So I will see if it continues to do this.

Plugs/Cap/Rotor have been replace within the past week or 2. wires were fine.

Could it be the (sorry if im mistaken) coilpack? in the distributor when you take the cap and rotor off. My friend at honda when we were doing my clutch and cap and rotor said that there was "hot spots" if i remember right on the coil pack.

So could it be this? also Ive noticed since ive bought it that at low rpms when I take off there is a quick loss of power but when it get into higher rpms its normal and takes off

Any insight would be awesome! gotta put on new shifter bushing tomorrow so would like to know what I need to pick up
