1991 accord ex-r. Engine sputtering, stalling and rough starts
Thanks for all the help robinson,
No, this 91 accord isnt carb, its fuel inject. I dont think the spark plugs are getting damaged. I just changed them all out with brand new ones about a week ago and they are still good after the little bit of driving the car managed to do.
Would a leaky fuel injector slowly go over time? Because this problem I'm having got worse and worse over time. It started over 2 months ago, once and awhile, and now of course it wont start at all.
Would a fuel pump do this? Slowly die? What else could slowly go like this? MAP sensor?

Fuel injectors can slowly go bad and it would account for a rich condition. A fuel pump can cause a rich condition but it more likely causes a lean, inconsistent engine.
Map sensor could make the engine run rich if its reading a higher vacuum than there is. You can probe the signal and ground and make sure that the voltage corresponds with the manifold vacuum. 3v=22in/hg roughly. At idle.
Check your spark plugs now to see what your engine is doing. If we know for sure the rich fuel mixture is causing the problems then we can work from there.
