Default Strange idle when moving, and shaky accelerater

recently I've been having problems with my h22. The idle is fine when I'm stopped, but if I take it out of gear or push down the clutch when I'm moving like at 40 mph it will hover at like 2500 and slowly go down as I slow down, matching my speed all the way till I stop, then it drops to normal rpm, it's so weird. I cleaned my Iacv and Fitv. Also, when I'm cruising, it will quickly accelerate and deaccerlate really fast making the car really jerky like it's misfiring but I don't hear any pops from the exhaust, but the tach does twitch. If anyone could post some help that would be great!

no check engine lights or anything?

my only guess would be a vacume leak.. but that doesn't explain why it idles normal at a stop..

Sounds like the clutch isn't disengaging completely.

Yeah no cel's cept for EGR since I got my h22 in an integra, and yeah I gotta put the clutch almost down all the way to the floor for it to engage, but it hasn't given me any problems with that yet, it seams as though it's disengaging completly as I can put it in and out of gear easily, except I do notice that it won't go into first easily unless I'm stopped even with the clutch engaged. Anymore help would be great! Thanks for the help so far.

i have driven many m2f4 and they all suck getting into 1st unless stoped.

i would fix the egr problem i am willing to be that is causing you issues. when the engine throws a cel it does all kinds of wacky ****.

edit: im done with this thread, after you fix your egr problem and if this problem is still present i will gladly assist you more..

The egr doesn't even engage till the engine warms up, and it cruising speeds, this happens when the engine is cold,warm, all the time. I just drove it today for 15 minutes, and I think there's something wrong with my tranny or clutch, it's getting worse, it feels like it's trying to slip outa gear and back real fast, making the car extrelmely jerky, my friends think I'm the worst driver ever. On a good note the idle is fine now, but I notice it drops slower at certain rpms, then goes down, stops again and then goes down to idle. Any help would be great, this is annoying the crap outa me and giving me a headache driving, and my seatbelt a workout.

Bottom line, if your problem is at all vehicle speed dependant, it's a clutch issue. It's logic at it's greatest.
