Default 02 EX 4 cylinder

Just seein if anyone has any answers to my probs.
I am getting cylinder 1 - 4 misfire codes.
The check engine light is on solid when i am driving on the highway but then flashes when idling.
The engine is very rough when idling and exhaust is sputtering.
I have changed the oil, oil filter, Antifreeze, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, pcv valve, & air filter today and it actually seems to be worse.
In addition to that the engine fan only operates when the ac is on. It will get very hot otherwise & have an abs light on.
The car has about 90,000 miles on it.
Any help is appreciated.

Did you gap your plugs right? Are your wires installed correctly? Connecting the wires wrong can cause a load of problems. How's your O2 sensor? Have you even tried diagnosing your CEL codes? That would be my first step. Doesn't your car have two engine fans, one for cooling and another for A/C? What's the last thing you did before this load of problems? Did it overheat or did you rev it up too high? You need to troubleshoot your problems more. Post back when you have some answers. ABS is a braking problem. Seriously, what the f**k did you do to your car?

What kind of new plugs? Lots of stories about Bosch plugs NOT working good in Honda.

Use NGK. 2nd choice = Denso.

did you try a compression test on the cylinders? O2 sensor? injectors? fuel pump?
