Default H22 Idle problem...

I have an H22 in a 92 hatch and its been fine for a while. It usually idles fine at about 900-1000...Today however it was at like 1600 and wouldnt go down?...I looked for any vaccum leaks but couldnt find any. Any other ideas?...I need help...it sounds like **** when it idles that high at a light...

did you do anything to it when this started to happen? i.e. put a new intake on, etc.

sounds like the fast idle valve loosened up. check it it is the valve under the throttle body. take off the screws off of the top of the plate and inspect the assembly if the white plastic piece is loose screw it back down using a flathead screwdriver.

just get any stock honda throttle body and slot the cut away bolts and unscrew them and replace your old one with it. remember to set your voltage to .49 at closed throttle.
