Sounds like a fuel problem.
Check your injectors, air filter, you may not be getting the right fuel to air ratio.

following up on the last guy... the legend has had a problem with an akward tank design resulting in the fuel pump not being able to suck out the gas. this is on a select few during production.
problems with the fuel pump and the fuel filters may also affect uphill perormance on any vehicle. from a NADC grad.

does it seem to have a misfire? could be tune up issues such as spark plugs/wires, air filter, fuel filter. if its a high milage car, could be anything. best bet is to have it properly diagnosed by a pro, after you are sure the tune parts are in good cond. fuel delivery problems are rare on honda/acura products, so probably look at the ignition system, and make sure there is no exhaust restriction.

Check the spark plugs,also the fuel lines or could just be the engine.
