This problem is usually cured by cleaning the idle air control valve, throttle plate (both sides), and throttle bore around the throttle plate. Check DIY forum for additional help. A shop manual is also helpful for guidance.

ericthecarguy on youtube has a good video "How to solve Honda Idle Problems" and "Quick Tip Throttle Cleaning" on this job.

I assume no check engine light. If you have CEL, get codes and post them.

good luck
