I have an 87 Honda Accord Lxi with fuel injection & auto trans. The problem is that only after the car has warmed up when accelerating from a complete stop it hesitates & spudders before it will go. There are no other problems it idles fine & runs good when it gets going. Any idea what might be wrong ? Thanks for your help. Rick

Hi jrickf,

The symptoms quite aptly describes a misfiring either due to spark plugs, plug wires, distributor rotor or distributor cap fault.
