88 accord hatch carb, after the car is warmed up it doesn't like to idle and back fires terribly. Also if the gas pedal is held down for steady driving, the car like jerks or sputters, but if i floor it as the rpms climb its fine. Im thinking something maybe with the choke, because when i go to start after like 30min of sitting it doesn't want to start, but if i spray a lil carb fluid on the carb it fires right up with no hesitation. Please help. Car also runs strong like a champ when not warmed up.

Timing, fuel filters, spark plugs, and possibly the fuel pump. Mine was getting weak and gave me shit...

sounds like its time to bust out the manual and make sure the timing is right.
