Yesterday, I had gotten back from school (which is 30 miles away) and the accord had been sitting for probably 30 minutes when I had to leave to go work.
I got in and started it up. It revved up right away quickly, like normal, but then it dropped down and started having very low and erratic RPM's. I tried giving it a little bit of gas and then it revved up with the pedal and when I let off it dropped REAL low and then died.
I started it again, and it did the same thing with idling low and erratic, but I just put it into gear and it was fine. When I got to work, a mile away, it was idling normally.
A little help please :D
Would this be related to my idle control valve, or whatever, that makes the car rev sometimes when it's starting in the cold?
Thanks
