Default My lude bogs

My prelude has started dying at idle and bogging at lower gears so I took it out for a spin to try and determine what it does when. It doesn't bog all the time only for half a second every two or three minutes.

I took the car out for a spin so i could drive it slow and it behaves normal as long as I'm at more then about 10% throttle, 2200 rpms in third at 30 MPH. under that it behaves normally most of the time. I drove it for 15 minutes and it only bogged 4 times that I could feel or see. of those one was at idle in park and it staled. one was at 1500 RPM's and 20 mph going up a slight incline and it staled. one was leaving a parking lot at 1000 rpm's and 5-10 MPH. In this one I punched the gas, about 50% throttle, as soon as i felt it and the car bogged for half a second and then reved normally. finally I was driving back home at 20 mph and i felt a slight bog gave about 10% more throttle, bearly anything, and the car just stopped bogging immediately. I don't know what else to describe so if you need to know something else to help please ask and thank you for your help.

also its a 93 prelude si the 2.3 liter I don't know if that helps.
