Put it in the HONDA forum. I'm really getting sick of people who can't read the thing at the top of this forum that says "DON'T POST CAR QUESTIONS IN THIS FORUM". Is it really that hard?

Sounds like the problem came about because of the maintenance. Discuss the problem with the guy that may have caused the problem.

i think either the spark plugs werent gapped or the spark plug wires got mixed up. go back to your mechanic.

Yup. Sumptin wierd there, Did it occur straight outta the shop? If so yeah, he's got wires transposed or something. If it happened after a period of time, common causes might be clogged cat, timing belt jumped, etc.
