Default having really bad jerking and lurching from 94 prelude

i have no idea what this is:
i have a 94 h23a 5 spd 2.3 non vtec prelude.

ran fine a month ago.

now on start up starts fine, idles smooth and no missing.

put it in gear and at like 2k rpm it starts jerking through 3k where i shift. it smells horribly of gas. i noticed that during the jerking the rpms arent jerking with the car. under hard accel at this point it just misses and jerks harder.

after about 5 mins of driving the cel will come on and it will go in limp mode (i guess) where its very sluggish and strains to go over 3k rpm, still reaking of gas.

tried to pull the codes but nothing! the cel wont blink when you bridge the connector?

im far from a mechanic so if anyone knows whats wrong or a good honda tech send them my way- i really could use the help...

if nothing happens this weekend im just going to take it to a dealership and bend over...
