Default B16a backfire, surge, and rough idle

hey guys i have a b16a in my 90 honda civic hatch, lately its been backfiring and when i gear between 2500-3000rpm it kinda surges forward for a second, also at times it'll idle at 750rpm and drop to 680rpm and just bounce around...i have no idea whats causing this, ive checked timing, O2 sensors, TPS, MAP sensor, im running outta ideas...any thoughts????
