My 92 Prelude S sputters with the same exact pattern as the civic's. I replaced a ton of elctrical parts. Dizzy, IM, Cap, Rotor, Plugs & Wires. Once the cap and rotor were replaced the sputtering stopped for a few days. Now it doesn't do it as frequently or nearly as bad as before, but it still happens. In order to get it to quit I either have to run the RPMs up above 4000 and let the engine wind down on its own or sometimes just letting off the accelerator works too. I've been diagnosing this problem for like 5 or 6 months and each time I replace something it seems to be fixed for a short amount of time then it starts doing it again. It has to be something else that myself and every mechanic that I have taken it too is missing. If you have any ideas, that would be sweet. Thanks guys. Take it easy.

sounds like clogged injectors. change th fuel filter and run some injector cleaner. also seafoam on your next oil change.

 

Sweet thanks. Hope this is it.
