Default Idle issue!!

http://i631.photobucket.com/albums/u...9/590ec9cc.mp4

This happened last night after I took it for a freeway run, got back home n noticing the idle fluctuates didn't think nothing of it till I woke up this morning and problem still occurs!! Could it be my iacv? I'm not throwing any check engine codes!

Could it be my tps sensor? Cuz when I unplug it the fluctuates stops n stay at 1500 rpm? When plugs back up it'll fluctuates again?

I would try cleaning your IACV and see if the problem continues.

Pull off the intake so you can see the two bypass holes inside the throttle body on the firewall side. Insert your finger into one of the holes while it is pulsing, if it stops pulsing on the top hole it is the IACV, if it stops pulsing on the bottom hole it it the FITV. this is also an easy fix. the plastic plug inside usually unscrews after a lot of vibration. https://honda-tech.com/forums/appearance-build-threads-122/morassos-1993-civic-cx-hatchback-build-thread-2194201/ this is a good write up on it it is the first issue

Mine did the same. Took off the FITV, cleaned it all out, put it all back together and it idled fine. Apparently there's an issue with the threaded plastic piece coming loose, only took about 20 mins to fix though

Yup no problem i figured that was the problem. The spedo cable is prob just pulled out a little. It is in the trans right below the throttle body. you prob knocked it loose. I usually pull it out and pull the inside cable out just a little. then make sure it engages in the speed sensor. Then i push the outer portion down on the sensor.

Your idle fluctuating like mines to? If so do what honda6 said pull the intake n plug your fingers in one of the holes.

not really fluctuating, mines just a bit low, and ive already cleaned my IACV and down vacuum leak checks, plus it doesnt hurt to just go in and tighten it up and clean my tb while im there eventho for some reason everything in this cars motor is spotless as if its brand new
