I have a 90 accord ex. Everytime I start it up and the engine is cold it is ridiculously loud, shaking, and rough idles bad! Also when I drive I just dont have good acceleration at all, its sluggish. Sometimes the car jerks when i accelerate as well. Just poor performance! Is anyone familiar with these symptoms?? Help?? please??

 

when was the last tune up? clean up the idle cut off and throttle valve. check your distributor. check fuel system filter, air filter, spark plugs & wire. timing and belt

 

I agree with him that you need to check those things .Hope the problem gets solved.

 

i just replaced spark plug wires, spark flugs and fuel filter, my air filter is only a couple months old, my car drives a little better now, but when its cold its hard to start up, and when it does start it has rough idle, loud and shakes. kinda sputters?

 

i would try checking your Idle Air Control Valve and Your Pressure Control Valve (IAC valve and PCV valve) both are relatively cheap so it wont be a hug hole in your pocket
