Just go any Repco and tell them your year and model and they tell you what spark plugs they got

usually NGK, Bosch, Champion

Go for NGK if you can

Is it just one time only or happens often?

you can try this error code test just incase you have some fault,and better to do this before you go to workshop and waste moneys http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...-ECU-for-j00-!

what the hell is going on.......

from what i can gather you are geting no power in 5th, well pal welcome to the world of low displacment, low torque sohc engines. please correct me if this is not the issue?
maby you should try accelerating in a lower gear... im sorry i dont understand lol
