Occassional Idle + Take Off Problems 900

Hi everyone

Recent I've begun to notice an "issue" when taking off from idle after... for example sitting at a stop light for a while. I will be sitting at a stop light, idling for a while and once the light turns green and I give it gas - occassionally the engine will stutter, almost stalling but it then saves itself and continues.

I should also mention that occassionally at a stop light, while idling the car will "stutter" like it does on take off as explained above, but without stepping on the gas. The first time it happened I thought... crap I'm about out of gas - but that wasn't it. I believe these two things may have to do with each other but I'm not quite sure.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated - thanks!
