so it idles funny when you first start it up? maybe the idle sensor? i had the same problem with my d16z6 a couple winters ago. it hasnt done it sense though. i went though last winter and it didnt do it so maybe it'll just go away.

check your IACV and also make sure you have no vacuum leaks. Also make sure you dont have air in your cooling system and double check your TPS and make sure it is getting the right voltage at close and open throttle. I had the same problem with my ride, (92 hatch w/ b16a2) my problem turned out to be the TPS and I also had some air in my cooling system. Works like a charm now. Good Luck
