Default B16A2 Engine hesitates at cold start

Hey guys, new user here. I have a small problem with my '97 Civic Sedan VTi.

When i set off with the engine cold (i usually leave it about 20-30 seconds in idle) and press the accelerator pedal about a quarter of the way the engine hesitates and jerks a bit then resumes normal acceleration. It does this in second and third gear the first few streets and stop&go's but after that it goes smooth.

The air filter, spark plugs, oil have about 5000 km (i'm from Romania btw ) the fuel filter about 10k, no lights pop up on the dashboard.

Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. If you need further info about the car i'm at your disposal.
