I went to replace cap and rotar because it wasnt getting spark but when i put new parts on it would never start so i put old parts on and it started right up. but now i have a multi cylinder misfire in cylinder 123 and it is idling really rough and now it will start but as soon as iget on the gas a little bit it will start to choke on its self and tries to die. any suggestions?

The later 80's accords have a problem with idling being to high at start up, even when the ambient air temp does not warrant it. I have had a 86 and now an 87 accord and both did that. I pretty much deal with it, being as you cant hardly replace indiv carb parts. Adjusting the idle will do nothing to stop it either. I took my 86 to a shop when I still had it and he fixed it, but I cant remember what all he did. I know he drilled a couple small holes in the choke plate. I think that the thermowax valve is bad, but again, you cannot find just a thermowax valve or anybody who knows what it is. Replacement carb in my area is about $450. Like I said, you might just have to learn to live with a high idle at start up.

if u see check engine light then there is a fault, probably idle solenoid ,wiring , ECU

sounds like you have a egr that is stuck open
remove the egr valve clean it and see if that helps
of not replace it should improve the idling
