Default 2002 Honda Civic Power Los

Ok maybe this might help. I'm determined to figure this out without
the dealer.

I was leaving the parking lot after shopping and the engine started to
cut-out as described before. Instead of gunninng it and continuing on
I parked it. I sat there in drive and allowed the car the struggle to
reach a normal idle. It sputtered and bucked a little, but I didn't
give it any gas(I was parked with my foot on the brake and the car in
drive). Eventually it worked itself into a normal idle. Does this help
any?


Thank you for your help, I really want to figure this out. It's
frustrating that the dealer wasn't a big help and I'm as descriptive
as possible on these boards and receive few replies, while others
write little and get many replies. Oh well.
