        ya mine used to idle at around 1200rpm...i replaced the IACV and that wasnt the problem so then i took it to honda n they replaced my temp sensor that tells the engine to either warm up or cool down lol...that fixed it

            Well for cold idle, mine comes just sort of 1,900 in single digit days, though usually its about 1,700 in winter.
            Stock tach matches my digital tach readings.

            And also, check the sitckies.

                  Ive got one of digital engine analyzers, same kind shown in the Haynes manual, and theres a difference of 50 or so from the car's tach. But my engine hovers around 690 to 740 according to the analyzer. That's good then.

                    Had a rough idle/high idle problem and it turned out to be oil in the connector for the temp sensor for the ECU. The sensor is located just behind and below the dizzy and when the bearing went on it last year the oil was leaking out and worked it's way into the connector. Cleaned it out, sprayed some contact cleaner into it and it idles perfectly now.

                      warm idle = warm weather?
                      cold idle = cold weather?

                        cold idle= first start up car

                            yeah...you need to locate your Idle Air Contol Valve and adjust it. clockwise to make it idle lower and counterclockwise to make it idle more. in your case...clockwise.
