20 second hesitation in 98 Civic. Start the car, drive... hesitationfor 20 seconds then fine.
My 98 civic has had this problem for a while where just after starting
(sometimes a minute) idle will get very jumpy. It is like the car is going from 3 cyl to 4 cyl, or just not getting enough gas for a few seconds... but the problem only lasts about 20 seconds. Any Ideas? |

Any Ideas? ignition switch. take all the junk off your key ring and make sure the key returns to the full "run" position after starting. then call your honda dealer to schedule your free recall switch replacement. |

Any Ideas? ------------------- Put a can of Techron injector cleaner in the gas and make sure your coolant reservoir is full to the =MAX= mark. 'Curly' |
