I'm no expert, but in addition to what Curly said, for my 1991 Civic at the
first sign of running rough, I'm replacing the oxygen sensor. (Probably gonna do
it anyway as a pre-emptive measure. I'm told O2 sensors gradually deteriorate in
performance, as opposed to just all of a sudden giving up the ghost.)

Best prices I've found for what appear to be OEM oxygen sensors (for my car
anyway):
