Default my 93vtec prelude is choking now!

it chokes occasionally on 1st gear at the light. It would choke like its going to stall but until after 3,000 rpm it would run normally. I know i'm engaging my clutches well enough where it wouldnt do such thing like that.

What can it possibly be? I havent change my oil yet. My oil are so black due to not changing it because my drain bolt is stripped and the thread stays in that hole. I'm so broke to even get a used oil pan. Can refilling oil to replace those oil that already been burn that decrease the amount of oil i have is fine?

My oil are so black due to not changing it - sludge will cause your car to choke. Change your oil dude, then go back to those ESL classes. Love your honda and it will love you back. If you are that broke that cant get a new oil pan you can tap your existing hole and get a larger drain bolt. Your cars death will cost you more than 6qrts of oil and a filter. I dont even understand your last sentence and i'm not gonna try, just change your oil it will save you money in the long run.

drill a hole in your oil drain bolt and get one of those easy out tools.

you could drill a hole in the drain bolt and tap that. like a smaller bolt. but then you chance getting metal shavings inside ur pan. sludge doesnt cause your engine to "choke." it has nothing to do with how well your engine performance. it could say cause your engine to not be able to lubricate itself as well. but changing your oil is not going to fix your problem. not a chance.

Can refilling oil to replace those oil that already been burn that decrease the amount of oil i have is fine?

what the... dude... try using proper grammar.

dude, what i mean is refilling oil everytime the oil is low from getting burnt is fine? i mean repeating this 5-8 times until an actual oil change.
