    Confused! Idle Again!

    Ok check this out, the car can be cold, and idle fine while in drive at a stoplight, once the thing starts to warm up it kinda shakes, and drops a little bit in RPMS. But when its warm if i push it into neutral the car idle fines, and it raises to where it was when it was cold. And idle fines. Same goes with park, but if im in drive, while the car is warm, it shakes!

    1 more thing.

    WHile im in drive, when the car is warm, the thing shakes, if i turn the steering wheel it shakes more.

    But lets say im at the same spot, and i put it in neutral, no shaking, and when the wheel turns doesn't shake at all.

    I drive a 89 LX accord auto. What the hell is going on?!

    sounds like the stupid thermovalves in the rear of the manifold are to blame, check them. Mine fell apart in my hands
