Idle problem solution
This may not apply to anyone .....
My intake manifold gasket was blown out. This caused massive vacume leak in the intake causing idle to surge from 1200 - 2500 RPM. Other weird associated symptom - while coasting above 30 MPH, idle would remain high at about 3500 - 4000 RPM. When coasting slower than 30 MPH, idlle resumed surging 1200 - 2500 RPM. Replaced the gasket and the car runs like a champ. It was a PITA to replace the gasket. I used OEM Honda gasket. |
