I'm having an issue with fast idle. It's revving too high and I don't know how to manually reset the idle on a fuel injected motor. It's a 16 valve 1.6 or 1.5 litre. I don't have the manual. '92 honda civic cx. Thanks for any info

You shouldn't have to manually reset the idle on your engine. You either have a vacuum leak in one/more hoses, your idle air control valve is leaking, or one/more of your computer sensors are faulty.

Begin checking these in that order until you find the culprit.
