Please provide more information about the issue. Does this happen when idling or a certain rpm? Does it happen all the time?

Is the check engine light turning on or the D4 light flashing? You should check for codes regardless. See the check cel codes writeup in the common diy thread on top of the gen tech help forum.

Any recent work on the car?

Also, how many miles on the car? Is the normal maintenance up-to-date, like spark plugs?

Did it start with a fuel fillup? (bad gasoline?)

(The ideas will probably be scattered all over the place until we learn more details about what's happenning)

Good morning when I first start up the Honda Accord it then after 5 minutes it starts to shake and vibrate and then while I'm at stoplight it will cut off.
I recently replaced the EGR valve the ECU computer and the distributor. The spark plugs been replaced about a year ago. The check engine light isn't on and the d4 either.

I always use NGK Laser Platinum plugs in all my cars. They last for at least 100k.

A distributor that works. I buy them off Amazon if they have a good warranty. Just replaced a civics that came with a 5 year warranty. If the price is reasonable and autozone has a good price then buy it.
