Depends on the year.

Older Carb'd:
- defective vacuum system, (affects spark advance ).
- defective accelerator pump.
- EGR valve.

Thanks to all for your invaluable help....I have resolved the problem, the cluster was crapping out. After a few trips to the yard, I found a unblemished cluster and presto! I have now cleaned the IAC valve and my car is running alot better too. What should the idle speed be and how do I adjust it....does the ECU have to be reset?

Hi D.Travis..
IAC should check out @ between 8 and 15 oms..
The idle speed is controlled by the IAC valve and is activated by the ECU itself and this depends upon the running conditions of your engine, your A/C unit, poer steering, cold and warm running..set idle to what your VECI lable on your car has , if lable is not there car your Honda garage to get RPM listing...
