Civic Hx Idle problem.
HI all.
Im new here and I just aquired a 2000 civic Hx i wanna to figure out what this idle bounce is. Its starting to get annoying.
It only happens on cold starts and only in gear. the idle bounces from 300-1200 rpm when at a stop in gear on a red light.
the previous owner gave it it a full tune up before i bought it.
im assuming its the IACV because it happend to my crx awhile back but not 100% sure. no check engine light nothing everything seems normal except the idle bounce when it cold. idle doesnt bounce if the car is in park only when in gear.

Re: Civic Hx Idle problem.
Clean the IACV, the FITV, the EGR and all of the EGR runners and see if that helps. You might also check your coolant level, I think I read somewhere that the FITV will read wrong if you're low on coolant.
