sup all... I've got a eg civic with a d15 dual carb (auto). Recently the idle has been hunting and just today when driving ive been getting some accelration problems.
More specifically, it happens when i come to a full stop and then accelerate but even if my foots all the way down the car wont move only until a few seconds later it just suddenly goes. What I find odd is that it doesn't happen all the time, only sometimes. Just wondering if anyone has had this experience before or know what it could be.

Hey saint, what fuel are you running?
for all my cars (Dc2, EG8 + Subaru) Caltex Vortex 95 for daily and 98 on weekends
to the OP - try running a fuel system cleaner additive + $20 worth of 98 through the car and see if it helps
