Map sensor, Throttle Position sensor or Ignition Coil. Daz my $0.02.

could be transmission, my moms feiro vi does the same thing, if in gear an not touchin the gas pedal, the car will jerk fwd instead of rolling fwd. But If your prob is similar to mine then on an incline the car will roll back before it goes fwd

Sounds like the TPS.

So it has nothing to do with the plugs? I was just wondering what would be the cause. Will have to check the Throttle Position Sensor.

Clean the connector and make sure all the three wires on the clip pushed all the way in.

Just a question. If the Throttle Position Sensor is faulty, won't the 'check engine' light come on?

If it is intermittent, it may not throw a light. And the TPS itself is most likely good, just the contacts need some cleaning up and tightening.

The car has a manual transmission system, I forgot to add. Now it is giving problems to go into gear. After the engine is warmed up it is okay, but gives trouble getting int gear after being parked for a while.

lol, I have been driving manual vehicles for over twenty years now. I also had a manual Honda accord for over 5 years, with no such issues. It served me well with no such issues. It is because of this unusual situation that I decided to post this.

However, I am laughing at your joke......lol

I took the car to the mechanic and he told me that the EGR is stuck. I think it has to do with vacuuming the system. When the hose to the EGR is disconnected the vehicle stays idle better than when it is connected, especially when the air conditioning is on.
