Default New car...new problems w/ idle?

I just bought a 94 teggy yay

Anyway, when I first got it, it had a bad battery and water pump, so the shop I bought it from replaced it. ((due to lemon laws))

Now though at intersections the car was a high idle, generally between 900-1k, I think it might be the IACV or the fuel filter, but I know little about Hondas/Acuras, so could I possibly get a little help?

Thanks.

lol, no I couldn't do that. Even with the idleing problem, lower year, and high miles, it's still tons better then my old car.

but the shop should be responsible for their work. i cant imagine telling a customer..."no i cant give you a warranty on this old POS but i'll take your money and you get right with jesus and pray i dont rip you off here"

true, and I understand that..

so what you're saying is, I should go bring it back? It's just going to be hard to explain it, they are Islam, ((I think)) and don't speak alot of English. ((my own bad for going there))
