Default Hunting for idle

Hey all,

98 DC2 with a 95 H22.

Yesterday, left work, on the way to house and my idle started fluctuating when I was at a red light. Would rise from 800-900rpm (about 1-2 secs between) to about 1400-1500 rpm repeadetly.

Gave it a bit of gas and held it and had no hesitation whatsoever, I could keep a constant 2000 rpm and it was steady.

After a few kms, was gone, car idled normally for the rest of the day/night.

Then again this morning comming to work, did it for a few clicks and then was normal again.

I figure since it seems to be when the car is cold that my FITV requires cleaning ? Any thoughts? Thanks!
