I had the same problem with a 2001 LX. Pull the spark plug cables one
at a time and inspect for oil both inside the plug and down on the
spark plug. I had a leaking valve cover gasket and the oil was
preventing my #1 cylinder from getting any spark whatsoever. It would
be alright at idle, but would buck like a sonuvabitch when the engine
was under load. If this isn't the problem, then stick with the free
"Autozone Diagnostic" but take whatever they tell you the code means
with a grain of salt. Some of these kids aren't the brightest.

My Honda Civic year 2000 is behaving very strangely. Yesterday i bought full
tank of gas and I parked it. I drove it like 3hrs later and it started run
rough and lose acceleration, shakes when i accelerate and then the "check
engine light" then came on. I took it back home and left it till today, and
then I started it and drive for about 20 miles and it still doing the same
thing. what should I do.
