Hey guys/gals,
I am new to the ETCG forums and am having a problem.
My cousin recently bought a 97 Honda Accord for pretty cheap.
Well it’s having some issues with the idle right now. When in park or neutral the car will like to rev up and down. It also has a high idle for some reason.
It had a CEL, I checked the codes. One was the Idle control system malf. and one was the EGR flow. I cleaned the egr passages with no luck to the idle. Atleast that problem is fixed. Cleaned the throttle plate, and the FICV (Since it’s the one that we could get to easily). With no luck. We bled the cooling system and topped it off. I am wondering, If we should just buy a new idle control valve because that’s the last thing I can think of or just try to clean it.
