Hi..
I own a 98 accord lx.. the idle fructuate up and down, for the life of me I can't seem to get the it fix right, 3 people tell me three different things.
I have check for leeks in the vacuum hose- no leak. Changed out--- all new hoses.
I have change the idle air control valve sensor-- still the same {idling up and down.}
Clean out the throttle control sensor... no change
It costing a lot of wasted time and money.
Can someon with please help me fix this thing...
Thank you...

I've seen many of these problems solved by replacing the Ignition Control Module--remember to coat the back of the ICM with an even coat of heat transfer silicone grease. If you don't want to replace it outright, AutoZone can test your old ICM for free. Here's how to do the work yourself:
