Default cant rev without it dying

ok well when i rev my 99 civic d16y7 the car gets a rough idle then dies, no matter when i rev my car up, but driving it there isnt any problems at all, i cant even be stopped on a hill without trying to keep it at an idle before i rev it up

I had a similar problem on my 92 EG. You didn't say if your having a CEL or not, I wasn't. But every time I checked a sensor I found that they were bad, changed my IAT, ECT, and o2 sensors. Ceck your IACV too.
