Hey, I was driving today and noticed that when I am in the low-rpm range, my car starts to jerk like it is about to die. Does anyone know what is wrong with it? I havent the slightest clue. Please help me. Thanks

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)
Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.
These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.
1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.
4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.
The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.
The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Manual or auto?
Does your idle bounce around in neutral (say from 800-2000rpm)?
Does it completely die if you don't give it gas?
It could be the generic "surging idle" problem along with old motor mounts.- Ghosty

Sounds like the issue I've having, but 10 times worse. I suspect a tiny vacuum leak or EGR issue, but its mostly a guess.
Sorry I can't help anymore, but if I uncover anything, I'll be sure to let you know.

This is my problem right now and I have done the following with no Luck:
1- New dist cap and rotor
2- New wires
3- New NGK Iridium Plugs
4- New fuel filter.
5- Cleaned out EGR Valve with carb cleaner
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem?

Originally posted by accordaffairYou should clean the service ports, egr valve is not as important.
As a test, why not disable the EGR valve? See if the problem still occurs.Opal Metallic Green '92 LX 2dr manual, 181k miles, '94 prelude VTEC wheels for summer (steelies with snow tires for winter), Omni-power struts/springs, and other junk
