Strange Idling 91 Accord EX
This has been going on for a long time so I figured it was overdue to ask.
When I'm stopped and use the power locks, roll a window down, etc. the idle will drop for a second. It's now doing this when I come to a normal stop.
A few months ago I had the carbon buildup in the engine cleaned up (ran bad, failed emissions), complete tuneup, air/fuel filter, all fluids/belts changed, and all belts changed. Overall, it runs much better. It has the original engine/tranny and has 213k on it.
Anyone have this problem or solution?

Maybe the base idle needs to be adjusted.
