This sounds like fuel starvation, it could be the fuel pump not delivering enough fuel at higher revs and/or the fuel filter blocked (if one is fitted), or it could be a partial airlock in the system. To test the airlock try running with the fuel filler cap removed (not recommended if the tank is full).

I know Honda concerto's and Civics (1990-96 ish iirc) have a common fault that causes these symptons. They suffer from dry solders in the fuel relay unit which is located behind the centre console on the dash.
I had a Rover 216 (which uses the Honda 1.6 16v engine) which had the exact same faults as you describe and this was solved by fixing these dry solders.

Questions--year, carb or injected?
I have a 1989 Accord LX (carbureted) with 145,000 miles. . My car starts first time every time, but in cold weather starts slowing down after about 30 miles. It stranded me this morning on the highway but started up again after about 30 minutes. My advantage is that I work at a Honda dealership.
A couple of the technicians told me that there is a warm-air valve inside the air intake. It is under the disk-shaped thingy (tech term) on top of the air intake with a vacuum hose coming out of it. This metal flap inside your air intake closes to take warm air off the exhaust manifold to keep your carb from freezing up. They tell me to wire it closed for the winter months which I have not done yet but will today or tomorrow. Good luck!

hear is where the year and engine size would help because honda had a run of bad distributors and the only fix is to spend $200 bucks to replace it because there are no aftermarket parts available but i dont have enough info. certified honda tech

If this is repeated often then I suggest you replace the condenser in the Distributor, it's probably breaking down. Try looking at the points faces if they're burnt and pitted this is probably the cause.

both your gasoline filter out is plugged up or your gasoline pump isn't turning out to be adequate stress and desires to get replaced. attempt replacing the filter out first this is more cost-effective. The more moderen autos inclusive of yours must have more advantageous than 60 psi to 90psi for the engine to get gasoline so it ought to nicely be the gasoline pump going out. the absolutely different danger can be a foul catalytic converter yet when the vehicle is doing it rather instantly then it isn't the converter. i ought to wager filter out or pump. sturdy success

i had a car that did this after driving a while, and it turned out to be a clogged catylitic converter. i had a friend with a muffler shop that took it off and gutted it then put it back on for me, much cheaper.a new one was about $ 300.

Lee, It sounds like your fuel pump is the problem.
