Default Partial throttle engine miss or "stumble"

Last night I tried to mildly accelrate and the car sputtered and bucked a little bit. I let off and tried the gas again and it was fine. Came to a light, left the light and was fine till second gear and it did it again. Let off the gas and tried again and problem never happened again. No CEL, so I was just wondering if anyone has had any issues like this. Car is a 92 CX with a obd1 gsr swap

If you haven't done one recently, try a basic tune up -- plugs, wires, distributor cap, rotor, and fuel filter.

I'd rather troubleshoot it before I throw money at it. Few things I have checked are fuel pressure as per Helms manual, and battery voltage.
