When I returned and started car, it began revving within 20 seconds of starting vehicle. It quickly jumps between 1,500 rpms & 2000 rmps. I almost sounds as if I keep tapping the gas pedal repeatedly while in park. Any ideas? Thanks for your assistance. dmac0923 Enthusiast Jan 31, 2009, 3:30 PM Post #2 of 5 (4108 views) Re: '98 Honda Accord revving when idle Sign In Dirty idle control valve? __________________________________________________ 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee 2002 Ford Ranger 2004 Toyota Corolla 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Loren Champlain Sr Veteran / Moderator Jan 31, 2009, 4:36 PM Post #3 of 5 (4105 views) Re: '98 Honda Accord revving when idle Sign In Low coolant level?

Loren Champlain Sr Veteran / Moderator Jan 31, 2009, 4:48 PM Post #5 of 5 (4100 views) Re: '98 Honda Accord revving when idle Sign In CTS: Coolant temp sensor. If the coolant level is too low, can cause a surge at idle. (The CTS must be in contact with the coolant to get a proper reading).
