Did you recently do the timing belt?? B/c i had the same prob with my b18b1 when i did mine, it would almost want to stall when i gave it gas then start to go. but the crankshaft was off one notch, i fixed that and it doesnt do that anymore.

when you check it with a light, it should be at the middle mark
