Default B18C W/Hondata S300 Misfire/CEL issue

I am trying to track down what started as a hight rpm misfire that would flash the CEL for a second but then go away.

Since then it has progressed to the car almost stalling completely and the CEL flashing but not staying on. It will last until I let off the throttle and then go away.

I started with replacing the cap and rotor and didn't have a issue for awhile. Keeping in mind though that I don't always beat on my car.

Once the issue crept back up again I replaced the plugs and wires as well and the car fires up and idles better than before. I had to get a ride home from work so from here I suppose I will look up testing sensors.

Opions on where to go from here?

Well one week later I have not yet found a solution. The problem is certainly load related. Once the issue begins, if the throttle is pressed hardly at all the car with try to die and the CEL will pop up. But even when datalogging it will not show DTC's.

I can shut the car off going down the road. Pop start it and the issue will go away, sometimes it will come back right away. Sometimes minutes later it will. I am starting to think it is directly related to something in the ecu.
