Flashing check engine light?

I have a 2000 Honda prelude type SH. THe check engine light was on so I got a buddy to pull the codes. It said random misfires and cylinders 3+4 most often. So he recommended I do a tune up. I bought new spark plugs, plug wires, distributor cap and distributor rotor. Everything was the same that was already in te car (same plugs wires cap and rotor) except brand new. After installing the car ran great and I had no issues. About 2 days later I started my car up in the morning and had a flashing check engine light. I know this means a really bad misfire is happening so I didn't drive it. Later on I check the wires were all in right spot and the plugs were gapped correctly. I even put all the old stuff back on and nothing changed. When I pull out the spark plugs the ends are black and smell like gas. CEL is still flashing and engine is running slightly rough. I'm stumped on what to do. Can anyone help?

Clunking sounds when shifted to Reverse?

Hi, Can anybody tell me what could be the reason for this clunking sounds when i shift the gear from drive to reverse? My hydraulic mount near the power steering oil is new, my engine mount on lower is also new, my transmission mount is also fine as per the mechanic(honda), clunking sounds can be heard during shifting to reverse from drive, sometime i can hear noise(slight clunk) when accelerating (i can hear only this during automatic shifting(decelerate) when gear from 3rd then it will automatically shift to 2nd gear & then when i accelerate, mechanics from honda told me that this is clunk sound normal, but i'm not satisfied to his answer, when AC is ON, and whenever condenser fan will work i can feel 0.5sec slight vibration, can anybody help me on this? (H-c.i.v.i.c.2008-AT-transmission)
