Have a shop diagnose it for cheap, then do your own repairs, that's my method when I'm stumped

yea my car does the same thing sometimes, its probably a misfire. you probably have some water in your tank that clogs up the fuel lines a little when they get cold and posibly freeze. fill up your tank and buy some fuel dryer as well as fuel injector cleaner and go on a long drive, or run the tank completely out. and you might as well get some more fuel dryer when you get more gas, im sure you'll notice a difference

and i actually notice which gas stations sell better quality gas. sometimes they put some water in their big gas tanks to get more profit, my car studders and shakes everytime i go to this one shell station

have you checked your fuel pump? mine does the exact same thing, mostly when it's cold, but sometimes even when it's warmed up, and i know my fuel pump is kind of trippy.

Shell vpower is what I use, never failed me, they don't put water in, that's illegal

yeahh ill probably do this weekend.

also i noticed when i replaced the sparkplugs the old ones had some oil on them.not alot tho.
is this right?

The little o rings are probably leaking, get a valve cover gasket set

They're called "spark plug grommets". I think they're around $2-4 each from Honda.

no.thats the thing i dont want people to get confused with.
the idle is finee. theres just alot of vibrations in park and at a stoplight.

Check the park plug gap, or wires. Maybe you just need a tune up already. Have you been cheap about your maintenance?
Also, where on the spark plugs did you have oil? Sounds like you need to do a compression check.

Thank you

 

[BrokenTalon27]

Thank you

Not a problem. I've had to buy them a time or 2.

 

[DopenessFool]

the spark plugs had a little bit of oil in the body only. not on the electrode just a lil on the body

 

[hgocasca]

I'm 99% sure its those grommets for your source of oil, and I just had to replace mine, you'd think I'd remember

of course its illegal, you think that stops them??

 

[DopenessFool]

i think i may have found the acceleration problem.
just looked to see where the gas filter is and noticed it is still stock. NEVER been changed.

could anyone also tell me how water gets into the gas tank and the symptoms

Water gets in the tank through the gas pump at the service station. It is in the tanks, and ends up in your car.
