i cant get the code, the 89 doesnt have it in that place, i read on another forum that it has it next to the map sensor in the engine bay and i think i found it, but the engine light doesnt blink..it just seems to blink once and then turns off, i already replaced the oxygen sensor, so im thinking it might be the iacvalve..why wont my diagnostic work though 0.o

i have a honda prelude 89 fuel injected car,, can anyone help me out figure out whats wrong? as i dont know much about mechanic and already spent quite some money on my car..the problem its having is that when i start the car the car seems to sputter for like 5 seconds then the engine light comes on and it seems to work fine,,then when i press on the gas pedal it seems to hesitate and then it accelerates, but it seems to like jerk..as if i was almost flooring the gas pedal,, once the rpm is high or the car is rolling it works fine,, this only seems to happen when i come to a complete stop or when im really close to a complete stop, once im like up to 10mph it works fine..i took it for a dignostic test and the mechanic said it could be a bad head gasket..but i took it to another mechanic and he said its the egr valve that is not working,, i must say before this the cars would simply turn off if it wasnt running but i had a mechanic change the intake and it works alot better but it still not good(also the spark plugs seem to be fouled, it seems as if they have a bit of carbon build up)….any information is greatly appreciated i tried to be as descriptive as i could, thanks..
