Thank you! dude its totally normal...whenever u come to a stop just turn the whole car off and when it turns green just start that sucker and hit it hard. It'll lower ur 1/4 mile a good 2 or 3 seconds but its all good...ull still run low 12's...lol, sorry man just kiddin... my car does the same thing, just put it in neutral when at a light and then in drive when it turns green (if its an auto)...yes its annoying but it works. i havent bothered to figure out wat the problem is yet.

cranny Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 give it a tuneup , lol. if its idling that rough , it needs something obviously. check your mounts as well , maybe getting worn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondanewbie Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 give it a tuneup , lol. if its idling that rough , it needs something obviously. check your mounts as well , maybe getting worn. Here's what I've done to the car since I purchased the car. 1. Oil change 2. Valve Cover gasket 3. Spark plug seals 4. NGK spark plugs 5. NGK wires 6. New radiator and hoses 7. Anti-freeze flush 8. Tranny flush 9. New Air filter 10. Cleaned throttle body 11. Put in New CV Axles 12. Had a mechanic inspect all the suspensions and mounts. NOTHING WRONG with them All of this work, money and time into this car and still idles like crap. Are there anything missing from my tune up list that still need to be done to fix this issue? I'm thinking of selling this car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 EGR valve. O2 sensors. PCV valve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondanewbie Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 EGR valve. O2 sensors. PCV valve. Shouldn't the Check Engine light come on if any of the parts you mentioned were faulty? I mean they are part of the emission system. Anyway, What are ways/methods to trouble shoot the EGR Valve? Control Solenoid? This may be the answer to the Idling issue im having. I did check the PCV valve and O2 sensors, both are good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycarsux Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 My 95 accord always rattled at idle. But if i revved it up to like 1500 it would completely stop. I think its the motor mounts that are worn in my case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex52e Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 My 92 Accord does the same thing although not quite as bad. I am going to change the motor mounts next week. I'll let you know if that does it. I also have a problem with the check engine light coming on when the engine is cold. I pulled the code on it and found out the EGR valve is bad. I have a new one, but haven't changed it out since it is almost impossible to get to without removing half the freakin engine and the mounting bolts are so tight I can't move them anyway. Maybe someday I will take everything apart to get clearance and try it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
