4500rpm idle after timing belt change

by "jeffdown239" <jeffdown239@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 2, 2008 at 10:03 PM

Hi all,

This is the second timing belt change on my 96 Civic.  This time it went 
much smoother than it was 100k miles ago, BUT...

When I went to start the car, it went straight up to 4000rpm, then
continued 
onto 4500rpm at a slightly slower rate.  It remained there until I shut
off 
the engine (about 15 sec later), since I knew it was not supposed to do 
that.

I checked the obvious like a wrench got struck on the throttle arm or a 
kinked throttle cable.  But none of that.

I did a preliminary Google search and it seems to point toward the idle
air 
speed control or a vacuum leak.  I don't see any disconnected hoses.  Is 
there an area I should concentrate on?  Could the IAC be the cause?

I have the factory service manuel, but I need to know where else to look.

Thanks in advance
