i have a 93 honda accord and for the time i've had it i've had some problems with it idling at about 2000 rpms. after a while of driving the 2000 rpm idle usualy drops to about 1200, but never below. today when i came home from work i almost shit myself when my accord started idling at almost 2500 rpms. i put my foot behind the gas and pulled the pedal towards me. almost immediatly my idle rpms dropped to 700. so is their a way to fix this? how can i make it so everytime i drive my gas pedal comes all the way back? or is there more than that.

I believe there is a spring that pulls your pedal back check that and replace it if need it

the spring or you really need to clean your throttle body out, I had that same problem on one of my other cars and all I did was clean the throttle body and it idled fine after that.......

Yea did that to a friends car and I think it took a day or two for it to get right, Just grab some TB cleaner at Auto Zone..:goodjob: :goodjob:
