When I start my car cold, the idling is rough and rather slow.

Car: Honda, Accord, 1996, 2.2L Vtech     -    Back to Fix-It    -    Honda Accord Repair Manuals

Q.When I start my car cold, the idling is rough and rather slow. The RPM is about 300 and the car shakes. After about 30-60 seconds, the idling will smooth out at about 850 RPM. Even after the car is warmed up and has been driven for about 10 miles, the idling will be slow and erratic if I go in to a store for 15 minutes and get back in my car and start it again. Then it will run smooth after about 15 seconds or so.

More Info required Do you have any issues with overheating or loss of coolant?
Was there any instances of overheating before?
Does operating the AC causes the idling to drop and then increase?
