Default 1990 Accord Idle troubles when in park and neutral

my 1990 accord with auto transmission runs fine in park when its cold. As soon as the engine warms up it starts to rev up and down. This only happens in park and neutral. when in drive it runs great. anyone have any ideas. thanks jim

Vaccuum problem, probably your MAP sensor. When your car is cold, the engine idles at a higher RPM and that's why it doesn't happen when it's cold.
