Re: Idle Jumps Up and Down 92 Accord
 
Thanks for the tip. I'll talk to the dealer about this. Since it's
intermittant they are having trouble figuring it out.

The three things that the local Honda dealer told me could cause this
behavior are:

-Faulty fast idle valve

-Faulty IAC(Idle Air Control) valve *Same as above--perhaps?
NOTE: This part is about $215.00 USD for an '89 Civic

-Throttle cable sticking

Recently someone here was having a similar problem with an Accord and they
posted that it was a thermostat getting stuck 'open'.

Take this list to your dealer and tell them to give one of these a shot.
Cheapest option first of course. :-)

Thanks for the info. I saved a copy of your messaget to take to the
dealer. You would think that they've seen this before. I still see a
lot of 92-93 Accords on the road. Maybe most don't go to the dealer
anymore. Who knows.
