Misfire with my 91 Accord EX

EGR port cleaning are a relatively easy DIY, if you get yourself a
slidehammer.

I tried the first part and yes, it is around 1200-2000 RPM then smooths
out. I suspect it is the throttle position sensor or blocked EGR port. I
will try this on the week-end.

Is it a automatic? If so, hold your left foot on the brake, put it in
drive, and with you right foot bring up the RPM. Does it miss then? Is
it always at the same spot that it starts? If so, turn the engine off.
Bypass the vacuum hose going to the EGR valve and try again (you'll get a
check engine light this time, but don't worry about it). If it goes
away, you have plugged EGR ports in your intake manifold.

Recently, my 91 accord EX, when it is warmed up, started sputtering when
I press the gas pedal very slightly. I.E. when I am going through a
parking lot under 20 KM per hour. If I accelerate more aggressively but
not excessively, everything is great. All other times it appears to be
normal, just when starting off with a gentle foot. This has been
happening for about 1 month.

New Parts:
Plugs
Wires
Cap and rotor
Checked air filter
Fuel tank Injector cleaner

Any advise?
