Default Low idle, Misfire, stalls when coming to a complete stop!!

95 Accord lx with a 97 engine, I swapped out the motor due to engine failure around 3 months ago or so just FYI

Now today my wife turned on the car just like any other day and started checking the fluids in the car. She asked me if i can check the trans oil just in case. so i did and everything was fine so i went back inside to finish getting ready for work. a couple of minutes later she tell me that the car just shut off and wont start. so i went outside tried starting the car and when i did it was misfiring, idle was real crazy low that i had press the gas for the car to stay on. so i popped the hood and checked to see if i unplugged anything while checking the trans oil and everything was normal. I wiggled the spark plug wires and told her to start it and it started up fine so she went to work. after about 10 min i get a call form her say that the car shut off again. when i got to her I kind of did the same thing and it started up fine but she told me that on the drive down the car started misfiring and etc.

Im going to change out the plugs and wires out to see if that was the issue. but just incase i wanted to get your guys thought on the situation. thanks in advance for all your guys help

Might be your cap and rotor or even a dirty fuel filter. Replace those things and the plugs and wires also the air filter
