Not Sure What The Problem Is????

Ok guys, So this problem im having, i thought it was something with my clutch and was hoping that it would go away if i changed my clutch. So i went ahead and changed my clutch and flywheel and the problem still is there. So the problem is that most of the time when i put it in 1st gear and start letting go of the clutch, the car shakes as if it wants to shut off. Yes i am giving enough gas..lol..Also, if im slowing down and then put it in 2nd and release the clutch, it does the same thing. The car drives fine, no issues no check engine lights. Motor and tranny mounts have been changed. I was thinking maybe its the slave cylinder or master cylinder?...Thats the only two things i havent changed. Also, i never changed the egr valve but dont have a check engine light for it but i do have 149K. So, im asking for some input if anyone has gone through this or someone with some knowledge. Thanks again...

Did you resurface your old flywheel or buy a new one?

i think he changed the flywheel, since it's easy to do i would suggest cleaning out the egr ports, just remove the egr valve get a can or two of carb cleaner and a coat hanger or wire brush to get all that build up out of there, i dont think that's going to be the problem tho, because i had a 99 accord and those are infamous for egr valves and cats, my cel was on for the egr valve, i knew a lot about the 6th gens accords by then so i had the intake mani removed and cleaned out (along with the egr ports) and code went away, but it was not effecting the tranny (it was a 5 speed)

I guess i can try the egr ports. So just spray the carb cleaner in there and use a wire brush to loosen the build up???

it's well worth it, you WILL feel the difference, the car will accelerate effortlessly, just get a few cans of carb cleaner (there may be something better u can use to break up the build up) but yeah, it's going to be a lot of repetition, spay, break up gunk, spray, break up gunk, etc.
