I have a 98 prelude.. It idles fine but when the car warms up and you drive for about 10-20 min then when you stop at a stop light for more then a min. the motor wll almost shut off but then go back to normal right away.. this only happens when i stop for more then one min. and it only happens once every stop that's more then a min.
I don't think it's the fuel pump.. it does it regardless if the tank is full or not.. Actually I was thinking about the TPS but as another issue.. ( when accelerating in 2nd gear the car seems to sputter a bit) will disconnecting the TPS help me figure it out..?

sounds like a small vacuum leak. could be any number of different components causing it. Have it hooked up to a diagnostic computer to find out what is the culprit.

Vaccumn leak, fuel filter, idle adjustment, choke plate

this happened to my boyfriends truck and it turned out to be the IAC valve. (idle air control valve)
