injector problems???

that's hard to say... the bogging you describe can be one or all of these:
1. overfueling
2. underfueling
3. weak spark
start with measuring resistance on the plug wires and replace the plugs, cap and rotor all with OEM Honda parts. I just replaced all of mine on the winter car (plug, cap, rotor, wires and valve cover seal set for about $120-130 bux).
Check to make sure the air filter is clean!!
then if need be check fuel pressure and change the fuel filter.
Does your coolant temp gauge work??

The temp gauge goes up and stops at the middle when the car heats up but i'v never seen it go past the middle.
and iv never seen my fan turn on but the car never over heats soo i thought nothing of it.
i even drove it hard to see it if would turn on but it never did. i not sure if the temp gauge works or not but it moves and stop in the middle.

just checking, cuz some cars take into account coolant temp when deciding fueling, so if the temp sender didn't work at all, it would always overfuel it, leading to bogging. it's a common problem on Saturns, I figured it's worth looking into. but since your gauge works, it's fine. My 1990 Civic gauge didnt' work, so I replaced the coolant temp sensor and now it runs very nice (but I also did a full complete tune up too).
