What does that mean??? The car only does it when its worm... and it doesn't rev at a constant patern... @ 1500 and droping down to lik 1200 and it jumps back up to 1500 when I'm holding the gas… I have no clue what it might be...

Classic Honda idle problem. When there's a big vacuum leak, the revs jump up to where the ECU exits idle mode. Then it cuts the IACV and ignition. The revs drop below the idle mode threshold, then idle kicks back in. Repeat = retarded 2 step. :lol:

So this is what I'm talking about... and its only when I'm holding the gas down as if I were to start driving...
