i have been having a similar problem as of late. every once in awhile after waiting at a light, i'll hit the gas and it just wants to stall, after a few seconds it is fine and i can drive off as if nothing happend. my lower back has been killing me recently so i have not investigated this problem yet, but if i find anything out i'll let you know...
