Could be a number of things, plugs could be worn, could have an idle issue or a timing issue, could have a vacuum leak

By the way, that H22A engine is designed to run 95 octane minimum, you should be putting that in anyway. It won't be running particularly well on 91.

ok do worn plugs have this affect!as for timing it seems to be running ok other than the stalling.vacuum leak !around the inlet manifold ! jus check the black rubber pipes!.

Also, common failure of Honda's of that age. The main PGM-FI fuel relay gets cracked joints over years of the relay coils vibrating around. You don't have to replace it if you can solder.

Check the power relay as in the vids, Youtube: 'eric the car' guy is the man. I fixed my2.2 Honda Odyssey the same way. My honda was stalling the odd time, and then a lot, then finally no start at all. I found the info after a poster put up the youtube link, so just returning the favour! Panelvanner.
