First, make sure that the cooling system is properly filled. There is a thermally activated Fast Idle valve mounted to the intake manifold which can cause this problem. There can be NO AIR in the coolant system - nothing! If that doesn;t calm things down then (Yes!) determine what the ECM is saying to you via the CEL Lamp. Although I've caught them lying (from time to time) Honda computers are preety good at self-diagnosing the system.....
