Default Car jerking a lot in traffic, when throttle is released

hey guys,

as the title says, I'm having a lot of issues when coasting in gear. the car is jerky in start stop traffic, more so than normal. it feels like a warped rotor when moving very slowly, but the brakes are fine. when driving, if I let off the gas, the car takes a second, then jerks a little as well. I'm thinking either flywheel imbalance, or throttle position sensor (do these need adjusting from time to time? never had to do it before).

any ideas would be greatly appreciated!! thanks

car is a 1994 civic ESI (D16Z6) same as US spec Si from same year
