When starting the car in the morning it runs kind of ruff. You can feal it in the staring wheel, kind of like a shaking. It is a 2002 with 47000 miles on it. Oil has been changed every 3000 miles and my wife babies this car. No fast driving. We have never changed the plugs, could this be it?

Yes, it may be the fact that you need a tune-up. However, on the severe side of the maintenance schedule from honda it looks like they will last you about 100,000miles. However, it is still possible that you need to replace them.

However, it may be another fault of some kind. Try doing a throttle body service to clean up those idle passages and the throttle body. If that doesn't work, get a free scan on your PCM and retrieve any DTC's and start from there.

Goodluck.
