I have a 96 honda accord lx, non-vtec. Ive noticed this for alittle while
now, heres the prob. When im driving at slow speed and ill tap on the gas
padel then let go. It seems like something in the engine still spins then
stops. Sometimes it does it for little longer then the other time. Wierd but
it does it around 20 mph. Sounds like somethings still rattling or clicking
then stops please help! But i dont notice it in neutral, could someone
explain?

 

When under load, your engine creates inertia thus the engine can't stop
right away. This is noticable with stick shift cars especially. Turn first,
give it some gas, go second, give it a little gas, go first. You'll notice
the engine can't slow down right away because the engine is rolling fast and
it takes a little while for it to move in to the speed of the current gear.

If that doesn't explain what you're experiencing please be more specific.

Right. I mentioned the manual because it's more apparent there since you can
down shift whenever you want. In auto it does it by itself and that's the
whole point of auto. It changes gears when it thinks it's time to change
gears and smoothens out that sudden decrease in speed. So based on what you
said you have nothing to worry about.
