what up people. im totally new to hondas and recently purchased a 95 civic ex. i like the car alot but the car doesnt have a steady idle. it idles from 1000 to 1500 rpms. i was wondering what the problem is and what i have to do to fix this problem. its not a big deal but it is very very annoying.

 

Are you getting an engine light? Welcome to HCF!!!

 

spark plugs, messed up IACV, plug wires too. How many miles does it got on it? And how longs it been since you swtiched plugs?

 

i just bought the cae. it has 149000 miles on it and i dont know if the plugs or wires have been changed. i do not have a check engine light. whats a IACV?

 

idle air control valve

your idle may be set too high; also, check your coolant level, if the coolant is so low that it's not getting to the IACV, it won't know the temperature of the engine, and it will idle weird.
