1988 CIVIC LX IDLE/STALL TROUBLE.
<U>1988 CIVIC LX IDLE/STALL TROUBLE.</U>
I'm having idle trouble. What happens is when I start the car, the RPM jumps to 3000 which is supposed to when the car is cold, actually should be bout 2000. Anyway, when the car has warmed up considerably, the RPM does not drop until I shut the engine off and restart. Only then the Idle drops to where it is supposed to be around 1000. This problem comes and goes. Also, when I'm cruising at hwy speeds, lets say 70mph with the rpm let's say at 4 or 5000. What happens is the RPM drops to 3000 then jumps to 5000, etc....back and forth till I slow down which only then the RPM stays at one place. This problem also has been happening alot, and lately when the RPM jumps around the car hesitates going on inclines as if stalls and then regains power, etc..
Anyone with the same problems or any answers to what's causing this?
