Rep Power: 0 HELP! Cranking issues...and low idle issues!
I have two problems, and they both started at the same time, so I am assuming for now they are related.
1.)The other morning I tried to crank my 2000 honda civic ex w/auto trans.
It just barely would turn over. I thought I might have left something on, but I checked immediately, and nothing was left on. I popped the hood, checked the cables, looked fine, no corrosion. Turned over the ignition again, and it finally started. Since then, it seems to crank faster the more I hold the ignition in 'crank' mode.
2.) After that first morning, it seems to want to drop it's idle (down to almost nothing) when the engine gets warmed up, particularly when I'm at a stop light in Drive. I put it in Park, and it may idle back up to around 500 rpm, or it may not.
Like I said above, I'm sure these problems are related.
Is there anyone that knows what's going on?
