    Hey Danny, could you tell me what kind of average fuel mileage you’re getting on your car? I just picked up a used 2009 mileage I’ve been averaging 26 miles per gallon or so mixed highway driving I thought I’d be getting closer to 29 or 30 MPG. A little disappointed by this, is this Norm? I’ve changed, spark plugs, air cleaner, oil, transmission fluid, etc. going to do the MAF sensor next. Anything else I should be checking?

    I have a question in my 2007 civic fd manual. My idle normal rpm is 800, and when I sped up like 40mph then putted the gear into neutral, my rom stays at 1.4k stable until I fully stop. I’m on neutral and I’m not stepping up the gas but my idle stays at 1.4k while the car is moving. And also, then I let go of the gas, my rpm goes up first like around 2k rpm before it goes down to 800rpm. What should I do?

    • @dannysdiygarage
      @dannysdiygarage  3 місяці тому

      Hard to give advice when you can’t check the car, but, Start by cleaning throttle body, do a reset and relearn, if your car has a throttle cable check the idle air control valve

    Hi Danny. Thanks for the video post. My 2008 Civic GX only idles poorly in the morning, and when it is below 70 or so degrees. I have to let it idle for 5-7 minutes and it sputters, which can be heard at the exhaust pipe. I then have to shut the car off and start it again. The sputter stops and I can drive the car. The check engine light flashes when I first start it. If I don't warm it up, the engine rpm won't go past 1500 rpm and its impossible to drive the car. It also throws the 302 misfire code for the number 2 cylinder. Will this reset help or is there something else that is causing the problem that you can suggest a repair for?
