89 Accord carb, M/T, stalling, bogging on acceleration

[KillahKitt]

Ok, so my first post is an update because so many had asked my questions for me!

My car was beginning to bog and threaten to stall for awhile, but I couldn't figure out the problem (failed NOX, too). Then my timing belt went. At 65mph. Got that fixed and the bogging/threatening to stall got much worse. Driving or stopped, lots of trouble. Did my due diligence here, and here's the result:

First I changed both fuel filters - no improvement.
Cleaned the carb/replaced gaskets - no improvement.
Changed PCV (existing one lost its little plunger-thingy) - small improvement.
Removed and cleaned EGR valve. While doing this, discovered the #3 plug cable was faulty and the 3-way air check valve was damaged and clogged. (NOTE: 2 parts stores couldn't locate the part. Called the dealership and they said my car is no longer supported by Honda! Got one designed for a GMC instead.) - HUGE improvement! Purrs like new!

Couldn't have done it without you guys!

What are you calling a three way check valve? Congrats and welcome!

Lol the thingy the parts guy told me was a 3-way air check valve!

Seriously, it's a small white and orange plastic valve that is located below the air filter housing (pass side). Mine was seated in a metal harness. The replacement is larger, so it's hanging loose now. I can post a pic tomorrow if you like.

Good cause Im not clear what it is you may be talking about. Stalling is one of the common complaints in the complaint dept. so you can help.

Great work!

Ok. Here's the pic. (sorry I was slow!) According to the manual, it is "Check Valve A". The orange dealie had broken off. I don't think it had very much to do with my problems, but I'm sure it wasn't helping, either!
