Idle Problem

I have a 1997 3.0 with a little problem. Not always but at times when i start the car it idles rough and almost stalls, it actually stalls sometimes. I hold the gas for a few seconds and everything goes back to normal, and usually happens on a warm start. My cars egr port has been cleaned by the dealer and plugs+wires are brand new. Do you guys have any idea what it could be? Thanks.

You might have to wait for the check engine light to come on to get a code from the car. My car was doing some stuff lately and it was the EGR valve. Take it to someone who knows how to work on Hondas/Acuras.
