I've been having problems with my 03 VTR - it started last month where the car would just stall on start up rather than idling so I striped the throttle body apart and cleaned everything up with carb cleaner which moved loads of crud but the car still had the same problem.
I then moven onto resetting the ECU by disconnecting the battery for 1 hour and now it idles perfect however sometimes when stood still the car will self rev and stick at 2000rpm sometimes more and when blipped it will go back to 800rpm
Any ideas guys on what it is and what I may need to do?
