Low Idle in Neutral

I have a 97 civic and whenever I am in neutral my RPM idles barely above the 500 mark. It feels like my car is about to choke an die. Last time this happened to me it was because i had broken cap on my distr. The distr was fine when i checked it now? So it's not the distr itself. I want to check the alternator but the damn thing is so hard to get out cuz it's hidden under my intake manifold. can someone help???

RE: Low Idle in Neutral

take it to an auto parts store, most of them will check the battery and alternator for free.
