Honda 1998, 4cyl, 180,000. I have a problem cold starting and also happens after the car has gotten up to temp, sits, for 2hrs and happens again. The engine starts but seems to be missing for approx 10 sec then rpm jumps to 1000 and the car idles fine and runs fine after that. I did get both temp sensors replaced and injectors cleaned. Wires and distributor cap are new. This all started after I blew a top radiator hose and check engine lite came on. Also have replaced timing belt at corret intervals and changed water pump.

Have codes pulled from the computer. Is the coolant level full and has it been bled or purged of air?

You could have a fuel pressure check done. A drop in fuel pressure could be the cause of the starting problem. There are other things as well. EGR valve, etc.
