Default Engine rocking back and forth...what to check out? EG hatch / b18c

I can feel a slight amount of rocking when transitioning from no throttle to part throttle during low speed cruising. Its just a bit like a hesitation and you can feel the motor shift, though not very much.

What should I be looking for? Any common problems that cause this to occur?

I know i should check out the motor mounts. But what specific problems should i be looking for? Any other ideas to check out while I am looking for the problem area/s

Im having the same problems, same motor too, B18c.

My problem (might not be the same as yours) is i need new spark plugs and wires. I would suggest you look into those first. Just my .02
