Hi,

I just recently bought a 1990 Honda Civic LX Sedan, 1.5liter, Automatic, 190K Miles...My question is in regards to its acceleration problem...The car runs overall wonderful...But what is happening is that it will sort of stumble or hesitate on acceleration when I depress the accelerator lightly...After a while it seems to sort of catch up with itself and it will be smooth...It does not stutter or hesitate however when at a cruising speed...Its VERY smooth then...I really notice it when say I am turning a corner at a good speed and have let off the gas to do so, then after the turn I put back my foot on the gas...That's when I really feel the hesitation or stuttering...Here is a list of the things I have changed since I bought it:

New plugs/gapped properly
New plug wires/rotor/distributor cap
New Fuel Filter
Adjusted Valve Lash to Honda Specs
Adjusted Ignition timing to Honda Specs
New Air Filter
Fresh Mobil 1 Synthetic 5w/30 Oil and Filter
New Stock Size Tires
Cleaned Out the The Throttle Body with Carb Cleaner

For the life of me, I just cant figure it out...I figured with all this stuff I did, one of them would help! lol...Oh btw it also passed smog well too...If anyone has ANY ideas I would LOVE to hear about them...Thanks alot!
