basicaly my car hicups when its cold, today it was -17 \*F, the car has no egr or cat, bored out TB and IM and a header, 97 sohc auto 72k, this is the way i got the car, plugs are new, and i ran seafoam through it, fluids have all been changed, and it has a catch can system instead of the pcv valve im gonna change the fuel filter, but i doubt that its, and the pump is nice and quiet and its primed everytime before i start the car, i have not checked fuel pressue because of the cold, it is never under half a tank of gas when its normal out like 25\* or more, carsfine =) today when i went to put it into drive, it ALMOST died and i gave it some gas and it kept it alive and it was fine the rest of the way, the cars warmed up atleast a minute before every takeoff, if the pump eventually does take a crap, itd be nice if it does in april, when i put the summer neon/bike back on the road \*it only does this while the motors cold, when its heated up and at stand still, it will hicup like one out of 100 times NO CEL thoughts? ---

Well, if all else fails. I would try the filter, could be some shit in there plus they are easy to change. Edit: this is a Honda correct? ---

Sounds like something to do with spark. Did you look at the plugs, even though they are new? Are they the stupid bosch +X ones? Ignition Coil? Distributor? ---
