    Fast Idle Question (I know theres tons of them)

    If you dont pump the accelerator before cracnking the car the fast idle does not engage, which as I percieved is normal. Correct me if I'm wrong or there are exceptions. Now is it normal for the fast idle to engage when you rev the engine after idling < 1min normally yet still cold?

    it sometimes dont wanna start if i dont press the gas first. thats only after its sat all night. now when i start it after an hour or 2, the fast idle wont kick in unless i press the gas, but i notice if i just let it run it will start to speed the engine up itself.
    Keep it HONDA. Or at least Asian.™
