Unhappy Engine stalling, please help!

Hi everyone,
I’m driving a EG8 Honda civic, carburetor (single cam), automatic. Several weeks ago, the car stalled (when my foot wasn’t on the pedal). I didn’t pay much attention to it but then the following week it happened again so I added a fuel treatment hoping it would help, but it didn’t. Now the car is stalling more often, especially when I start up (hot starts only, cold starts works fine). I just changed the air filter and added another fuel treatment, but it isn’t helping. In fact now it seems very sluggish. I would appreciate any advice to that would help solve this problem.

Regards
David

yeah just get in there and clean everything out. carb spray works wonders. fuel treatment does not.
