so I would automatically suggest tuneup (see link to Simon's post below), but we've been there before... re-read that thread as these are cheap + easy things to do, even on your own, but certainly a Honda or whatever guy who can't do them is incompetent... very basic stuff (don't need a saab tech to change plugs cap + rotor, and that's like $30 in parts)...
*but* you can pretty easily open the hood + look to see if the distributor cap is an orangy-brown coloured Bosch one... how old are your plugs? wires? distributor cap? etc...
highly recommend getting a bentley manual... will get you started... these cars are easy to understand, and once you understand them, you can make the simple things right + most of the problems go away... the bently manual is great at getting you there...
