Maybe your IACV. Also maybe you need to set your base idle speed correctly?

i have the same issue in my 99 civic ex. how do you set the base idle? ive heard that your supposed to start the car, get it warmed up and when the radiator fan comes on, disconnect the IACV and the idle should drop to base rpms. but the thing with mine is that it doesnt drop at all.

The procedure for my '95 integra is just like you say. Other years might not be exactly the same. You gotta find a shop manual for your car.
