Default 1996 Accord EX Problems

My accord is throwing codes...71, 72,73,74...which are misfires in cyl 1-4...i dont know if this is a malfunction or the engine is actually misfiring. I dont feel it misfiring but at high speeds there is a small shimmy. The VSS code that i was getting went away. Now when the rpm stays above 3500 for a few sec the check engine light starts to blink... I cant figure out what is wrong...im thinking that its a electrical problem. I checked the coil and got a resistance rating of .9 the book says between .4-.6 I dont know if this is the problem. Does anyone know what the sparkplug wire resistance is suppose to be? Today the car stalled on me while i was accelerating and once yesterday while idleing. Ive tried reseting the ecu after changing the rotor and distributer cap but it comes on again around 65mph or when the rpm stays up for a while.
