91 CRX Idle Problem
 
When the engine is cold, idles great. After warm up, it will sit there and
surge from 1000 RPM to 1350 RPM about once a second. The car has 105 K on
it. I've tried running fuel injector cleaner through it with no help. Is
this a computer problem, or mechanical?

Temp indicator reading normal? Sometimes a defective thermostat can
cause this kind of thing.

Check out http://resource.crx.org/modules.php?name=Forums

The website is specifically dedicated to CRX's. You'll find a lot of useful
information on there and people who are friendly and helpful.

Try resetting the ECU and see if it still does it.

Do you have antifreeze?
