yet another problem
my g/f's civic is ****in up again. everytime she stops at a redlight or stop sign, its stalls on her. it shakes and then stalls. i cant seem to find the problem. we turned the idle up, that didnt help. we thought it was bad gas so we cleaned that, and it didnt help. im thinkin maybe egr valve..but im not sure...anyone have this problem or can help me? btw: she has a 92 4d dx model. thanx guys

my civic did that before, and then i changed the air filter, and it stopped stalling.
my old jeep used to do it too, and it was clogged idle tubes (but that thing was also carburated, so that probably isnt any use to ya).

its an auto...it does idle normal in park. anything else then its rough. someone told me it could be the idle air control. hes gonna look at it today and see if some of the vacuum lines need cleaned or something. i know its not the air filter b/c i just put in a brand new k&n filter

In my 3-G Prelude I had the same problem and it ended up being a problem with air/fuel ratios within the ECU. It could have gotten fried or simply your PGM-FI could be on the blitz. Try cleaning the injectors.
