WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Honda Prelude, 2000 Honda Civic, and 2000 Honda CR-V. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Ensure idle speed and ignition timing are set to specification. See appropriate IDLE SPEED & IGNITION TIMING  table. For adjustment procedures, see ON-VEHICLE ADJUSTMENTS article. Before checking or adjusting idle, ensure MIL has not been reported on, timing is correct, and that spark plugs, air cleaner and PCV system are okay.
