i havent had idle problems since my IAC was clogged up. now months after i cleaned it out all of a sudden my idle has dropped real low. these are the only 2 factors that i think could have made it happen so suddenly.
number 1, the other day i un-bolted my stock exhaust near the rear right wheel well. its not hanging but its unbolted. it was probaly dumb to do cuz it sounds like a civic, but its temporary until i install my Greddy SP2 in a few days. idk if that could have made my idle drop today or not.

number 2, without letting my car warm up cuz i was in a rush, i immeadiatly drove it and went right out on the highway and when i had to stop at the first light thats when the idle was so low it felt like i was gonna stall out. then at the next light it started to do it, then i shut my car off real qucik and started it back up again and it went away. i rarely do that and usually let it warm up so idk if that had anything to do with it.

any input is appreciated.

 

i say let it warm up
i warm mine up. summer and winter
i say we get together one one day and have our cars smoke a blunt

 

mine started doing this...........then one day it started stalling.......all the time, i think i need to unclog my IAC

 

btw i let mine warm up when it start to have low idle and it just stalled after warming up a bit.....while still in park

 

Could be a plugged fuel filter, fuel pump going bad, clogged injectors. Needs a full tune up... It could be a number of things.. How many miles are on the car? When was the last time it had a tune up, and what was all done?

 

tune up was done in april

 

maybe you should try to clean it again?

 

seafoam

 

 

it stopped doing it. idk whats up with that. i got spark plugs in the fall so they should be fine, but i think i need new spark plugs wires. i just hit 116K yesterday and i get my oil changed every 2K. i used that injector-carb cleanler stuff a few months ago, im not sure if that does much. but if it starts acting up again, im gonna have a mechanic look at it at my job.

 

maybe you car is PMSing
you never know
my bitch still has a good flow

 

I tend to think you may have a sensor that is losing its connection to the pcm. You could check all the plugs and make sure they are firmly connected to your IAC, BARO, VSS, MAP. Check vacume connections for leaks. Oh, WTF... Why would you change your oil every 2K?

 

some people are just picky

 

idk sometimes i think my EGR ports are clogged. i always see threads about dudes on Accord forums de clogging there EGR ports.

 

because i barely put miles on my car and by the time i get to 3K its been months. even 2K is alot for me. all i do is city driving, i barely leave my county. i rarely DD so my car sits home on the street all night. i drive like 10 miles a day.

 

like i said
seafoam

 

im scared of that shit dude, idk. if you dont do it right you can really destroy your motor.

 

maybe you should try the seafoam......the instructions don't sound too hard
1.) let the vacuum line suck up 1/3
2.) pour down oil cap
3.) pour down gas tank
4.) let it sit for 8hrs
5.) it'll start smoking like crazy
6.) change oil at 500 mi after seafoam was used
(is this all correct???)

that seems right, but ive heard in some cases after the seafoam is used, peoples cars werent able to start.

 

they probably hydro-locked it, because they didnt let the vacuum suck it up, but instead poured it down while the engine was off
