What would cause slight hesitation and sputtering while idling in park, or sitting at a stop light in drive ? When taking off from a stop light there's a little sputtering/hesitation for a few seconds, then it goes away. It doesn't seem to be as noticeable in neutral.

Check to see if the ECU is blinking, she'll tell you what's wrong..
will do
ecu is flashing a code 7. What does that mean ?
in the ecu codes and how to check them thread, it says code 7 is throttle position sensor is either unplugged, or defective. Where is the throttle position sensor located on an 89 accord lxi ? I checked every plug i could find around the throttle body and they are all plugged in. How much would a new throttle position sensor cost ? When i replace it do I have to dissconnect the battery to reset the ecu ?
get a haynes a chitlons manual i never had an lx-i so i don't know what i can tell you.
