91 accord with idle problem?

I know this isnt a civic but O' well!

good friend of mine bought a 91 accord with 215,000 miles on it runs great!

only one question does this car have a IACV? or anything i can clean or do to stop this car from surging when i stop at a light?

car never dies! but it is annoying...

dont think ill get much of a responce but does any one know anything about idling and a 91 accord.

thanks!!!

Re: 91 accord with idle problem?

if the idle is "surging" at an idle.. check your coolant level.. then check your vaccum hoses then check your engine grounds.. if it is surging at an idle the coolant could be low.. the IAC and CTS are reading high and low temps.. so it doesnt know where to tell the engine to idle.. if its not that.. the pcv valve could be disonnected.. or there could be an engine ground disconnected.. let me know how u made out.. but yeah it could be an EGR problem.. wouldnt doubt it

Re: 91 accord with idle problem?

moms 92 accord always does this too. very shakey at idle mostly. i clean out the tb and it idles perfect, but after a couple weeks the problem just comes back lol. im too lazy to take off everything and clean the sensors, altho it prolly would help more.
