could be plugged EGR or a plugged catalytic converter (happened to my dad on
his 89 accord).

If the timing belt is way overdue (years OR mileage) it could have
jumped a tooth or two and would run poorly. If it's even out one tooth,
it will be totally gutless until warm, then only very gutless. Did you
change or at least inspect the PCV?

Save your money, I dont' think it needs high octane gas. I prefer
gasohol from time to time for the sake of keeping injectors clean.

usual suspects are, in no particular order, plugs, leads, distributor
cap, rotor, egr valve, pcv valve, timing, thermostat, oxygen sensor,
coolant level, tandem valve, vacuum pipes, dirty injectors, jumped
timing belt, ...

if you can be more specific with the tests you've performed to eliminate
any of the above, we can be more specific with advice.
