93 Accord with H22 Swap

With my last post I had changed fuel pump/filter and was having stalls, I guess the gauge sending unit isn't up to par anymore and I was just low on gas.

I believe it's running a little rich and has been, but it sure ran good for a year since the swap, taking it to a tuner place in the morning. Since a little before the fuel pump started acting up: suddenly very little acceleration before I get up around 2500rpm. I noticed today that from a cold start it's pretty snappy again just for a second. Last night after driving a couple hours I wasn't sure it was gonna make it, had to downshift to get it to move! Is it likely that it's plugs, or anything else I can look for when I take it in to a tuner guy?

I can't hurt to pull the plugs and inspect them.

The plugs were ok, it was the distributor, black and dusty inside, cleaned it off and much better bug time for a new.
