It could have a fuel injector leaking by when you turn the key on, then when you crank the car up it takes a second to burn out the extra fuel. I had an older accord do this at the shop.

This seems more plausable... it literally sputters for a split second, if I tap it to 3k once, it stops

You can pinch off the fuel supply line and have a buddy crank it, then slowly remove the pliers (or whatever) and see if it runs smooth right away, or still sputters.

They may seal better hot, then leak when they cool down. Or the temp in the engine burns off the leaking fuel until it goes under a certain temp.
