Honda Accord Suddenly Rough

Q. I own a 1992 Honda Accord EX; it has a four cylinder engine and manual transmission With about 170,000 miles and has ABS A/C P/S don't know about rack and Pinion steering but I do believe it is fuel injected.

The problem is this, while I was commuting home from work the engine suddenly started running rougher that normal and is louder than it used to be. And you can feel the difference too. I don't know what else to say but that. Isn't much to go off of either. Hope you can help

A. "Suddenly" usually means something broke. It's possible the exhaust manifold has broken or maybe a spark plug came loose and blew out. You can look under the hood and see if there is anything that looks out of place. You may not know what to look for, but if something is broken, it should be obvious.
