I am having a problem with my 97 Accord. When I put the car into first gear it has trouble accelearting, when it is in 2nd gear the problem is still there. It feels like it isnt getting a proper mixture of fuel and air. I was wondering what i can do to fix this problem? I have changed the spark plugs and it didnt fix the problem. I took it to a mechanic a couple weeks ago and he said it could be the fuel fitler.

You should do a full tune-up

This includes: spark plugs, wires, ignition cap and rotor, fuel filter, pcv valve and oil change (if needed).
