5th gen civic is sliggish upon start and sluggish off the fly >>
ok here are the specs >. 95 civic dx 2 dr auto 140k mi. i recently changed the spark plug wires, cap, rotor, flushed coolant, oil, the basic **** > plugs havent been changed but the car sat for the past 5 mos > i have put about 1k mi on it since it went back on the road. when i start it up it startsa but idles very choppy as if to stall. when i give it gas it is fine. also wheni come off the fly like from a light i could floor it and it feels like it is being pulled backwards for about 10 seconds then it pulls nicely.
help would be appreciated.

Gets you a new PCV valve!? New plugs always with new wires/distributor cap. Also reset the ECU backup fuse. You could have gotten water and or rusty internals if it sat for 5 months, so somethings gotta be done in that department. Clean the throttle, lube the accel cable or replace. Other junk that other people are about to list.

its not the idle so much as the acceleration >> its sluggish off the fly at times >> i changed the pcv and its a bit better but does anyone think it could be something with the tranny?
