Default Need help on 1990 Honda Accord DX??

Im not to good with these, I just started having a problem. When I go to start it, it stumbles and misses every few seconds. When you go to drive it. It bucks when you try to accelarate, till it gets warm then it goes away for the most part just does it once and awhile. It has never done it before it just started out of the blue. Car has 150,000 miles and is maintaned alot.
Any ideas what to do check etc, Im going to do a good tune up on it. Was wondering if anybody ever had this problem??
Thanks.

sounds like it's the main relay for our cars. I have an accord too, but fortunately, it hasn't happened to me. Sometimes when the weather is either really cold or really hot, it messes up the sensor in the relay. therefore, the car doesn't usually start right or get up and going until it reaches the right temperature.

another common problem with 4th gen accords is the distributor assy. They had a recall a while back because so many of them were defective and so was mine (twice). I was driving down the highway on 264 when my car's distributor decided to go out on me - sucked balls.

on another note have you checked your fuel filter?
