Default 1995 Accord running rough when cold

My 1995 vtech accord starts right up, but runs really rough until it warms up. The RPM will rise and fall as it warms up as well.It has 244000 miles on it. It just started happening one morning when i went out to warm it up. I am not sure if it is just a tune up issue, or something major. I have always done my own work on cars, but wouldn't count myself as and expert mechanic. I just figure it out as I go. Looking for any advice! thanks

If you are not sure when the last tune up was done or think it is due......start there.

While doing that a good cleaning of the TB - get both sides and the edge of the butterfly. Also clean/adjust the IACV and the FITV.

I'm assuming there are no codes - stored or other wise.

I have an update on my car. I did what was suggested and cleaned the TB as well as the IACV and the FITV. That didn't seem to fix the issue. They were dirty and needed to be done! But it was running more rough every day. I decided to pull apart the fuel rail and look at my injectors. Two of them were really clogged. After giving them a good cleaning the car runs great! Thanks for the suggestions!
