engine problem
 

ok guys, i have a 92 civic and when i drive it for about a half an hour it will sort of cutt out. What i mean is ill be driveing down the road and ill punch the gas lightly and the engine acts like it is stalling, then i let off the gas and a few seconds after the engine will come back strong. Any ideas what it could be?
thanks

check the fuel system.........replace the fuel filter and fuel presure regulator......id also make sure the spark plugs are not dirty........and make sure they are gapped correctly.

yeah my dad 89 civic hatch had a similar problem. the mechanics said it had to do with the fuel injection and regulator

i just bought a fuel filter and a fuel pressure regulator. I also bought a cap and rotor because my dad had an f-150 that did the same thing and it was the cap and rotor

check spark plugs

ok guys, i replaced the fuel filter, the cap and rotor and the fuel pressure regulator. I checked the plugs, they look new so i gaped them and put them back in. The "sputturing" is not as close to as bad as it was, but if i just sit there in neutral and hold the gas at around maybe 1000-1500rpms the engine will sputter down and go back to its idle. One of my friends said it could be the fuel rail. I looked at some on ebay and i was wondering if i could use them on the stock fuel system.
