well for the past 2, 3 days now i have turned on my car and the rmps will jump up to 3000 when it is cold. but when the car warms up it will sit below 2000 but will jump up and down. it has never done this before. i need to fix quick. some one help me.

 

i had that happen before. for me it turned out to be a series of problem. first, i had to change my spark plug wires. second i found out oil was leakin into my first cylinder causing it to misfire, and so i had to change my head gasket. did ur check engine light go on?

 

Sounds like a vacuum hose is loose....?

 

distributor dude

 

Either its your hose or you distributor...Sound like your not getting enough ignition from the distributor you might want to go get it checked out sounds serious.

 

its your distributor i had this problem last month.

 

can i losen my distributor while my car is on and see if it stops. and which hose should i check?

 

Can't it also be the IACV?

 

those rpms are kinda high. normally when i hear that "rpms are jumping" most people reccomend to check a series of things beginning with:

-vaccum lines around the intake area. = checked by hand & visual

-bad IM gakset or TB gasket. = checked with carb cleaner watching for rpm up-jump when sprayed.

-bad sensors 1) IACV 2) TPS 3) FITV = checked with voltage tool and FITV by placing your finger over a small opening just inside the TB.

search with those key terms i listed 4 mo' info.

 

yea it definity could be the IACV. didnt really think about that.

 

where can i find this "IACV". is it an easy fix. i really need it done quick.

 

it was air in the coolant lines for me

 

how did you fix that?

 

i just took out my s plugs and one of them had oil on it. is this bad and should i be worried?

 

ttt

 

it was a coolant line for me too.. just clamped it back up and i was fine.

 

it sounds like the same problem i had when i went to willow. i would start my car and it would idle at like 4k, then go down to 2k then up and down. took it to acura and it turned out to be a bad IACV, got it replaced and bingo-bango.

 

on my toyotoa previa they rpms will jump like 2k from wherever it was was because some kind of fluid was leaking onto some wire.... (i know i'm ambiguous cuz i don't know exactly what i'm talking about) and that wire getting wet caused the rpms to jump... i dunno if your case is the same cuz the previa engine is designed way different from the integras...
kk later gl

 

Just bring it to the shop and let them do it cause you found oil in your sparkplugs where the oil is not supposed to be there. this happended to my friend 95 Rs a couple days ago, his car wouldn't start because of this .
It might be the distributor like some people said above too.

 

when you replaced all the plugs and wires and stuff did you also replace the valve cover gasket and gromets? That could be why oil is on your SP's

 

on i bought the engine already put fully together.
