Your misfire can be cause by couple of things but the cheapest way that you can try to fix your car is to do a tune up by replacing:
1)all spark plugs
2)do a oil change
3)spark plug wires
3)distributor cap and rotor

note misfire can be cause by:
1.bad gas
2.spark plug and/or wire
3.distributor cap and/or rotor
4.valve adjustment
5.injector
6.off timing
7.ECM
8.bad wiring(power, ground or feed line)

was there oil in the dist cap if so replace distriptor and try again

there is no such hose... or there shouldn't be hahahaha. the injectors are not oil cooled

possibly could you spark plug wires or distributor faulting you will need a mechanic or a manual to adjust the distributor or just get new spark plug wires

a standard tune up. oil change and oil filter, and new spark plugs and spark plug wires.

Firstly, make sure the new spark plug that you bought is of the same heat range of the previuos plug or as stated in the car manual. there are 2 possibilities........1. oil drip thru intake or exhaust valve 'O" ring. 2. Piston ring already worn-out,

D4 is slipping and not engaging. This means you need a transmission. you're losing a gear

The Honda Civic Repairs site has some decent pics on its site:

oil inside the cylinders happens two ways...bad or worn piston rings or bad valve seals.  If you do a compression test this will tell you what the problem is.  when you remove your oil filler cap with the motor running is there a lot of pressure coming from inside the engine?  If there is, as I'm suspecting you are sadly suffering from a worn out engine.

First thing to do,try to pump your clutch before you shift into 1st gear then if you feel makes better, most probably you have problem with your hydraulic clutch system, check the clutch line if there is an evidence of fluid leaking or it could be internal leak.

Second thing to do, check your transmission oil, may be it' s too old or you use a thick oil thats why when cold its hard to shift then when the engine rich the normal temperature(warm) the oil become thin and the shifting will smooth. Remember the very old oil become thicken and the purity is gone and can cause of hard shifting. in this regards i suggest you to change the transmission oil and check the used oil if there is small peace of metals, then you are in big trouble,
