Default ek idle and starting problem

I have a 98 cx with b20 running obd1. When im driving and put the clutch in say at 2500 rpm the car almost dies and sometimes it dose. and the unusual thing is it only dose it when it is cold outside. even tho i have been driving for hours it only dose it when its cold. also when my tank gets below a quarter it gets harder to start and seems to want to die more. but when the car idles it idles perfect its only when the engine is slowing down. what could this be?

oh i forgot, once or twice it has thrown a check light, but just tonight i was driving and it threw a code and started to serge when driving below 3k rpm, so i pulled over and checked everything and just shut the Car off and started it back up and it was fine for the rest of the night.

but no solid check engine light.
