problems with lean burn in my civic vx

i just bought a 92 civic vx a week ago, working out the kinks.

it feels like when it should be going into lean burn, warmed up, at cruising speed, light throttle, it stumbles or misses as if it was running out of gas. if i give it just a little more throttle say from 20% up to 25% runs fine again.

also if i am driving down a hill in gear, where i think it should cut fuel to the injectors the check engine light comes on until the car is turned off again.

any vx owners had either of these problems? or know how to check the check engine light code?

thanks much for any ideas
