Default help 91 accord stumbling

I have a 1991 Accord lx w/ 215K miles. When the car is warm is when it stumbles. after this happenes the vehicle would start and idle but when you tried to rev it up it would die. If you tried to drive it the engine would stumble and die under load. There are no codes stored, there is fuel pressure, spark, the crank and cam are timed. If the car starts it can be reved if you do it slowly. If you blip the throttle it dies and is difficult to restart. The car will drive if you use very little throttle. HELP - I do not know where to look next???
Thanks for looking

Okay I tested the coil with a multi meeter it read 1.3 between B neg(-) and A poss (+). Then I tested the secondary winding termenals and the Poss (+) primary and it also read 1.2. So is my coil bad? I just dont want to throw money at a coil if I dont need one.

primary resistance = 0.4 to 0.5 ohms
secondary resistance = 15,000 ohms to 25,000 ohms

I was reading the meeter wrong the coil was bad. No im moving on to check other issues that Im having. This little car is becoming a hassle and I need it just to work.
