Put some gasoline in it. -- "Ubuntu" -- an African word, meaning "Slackware is too hard for me". The Usenet Improvement Project: http://improve-usenet.org |

Tell us more details about everything you checked under the hood, mileage, location, conditions and don't replace anything until you prove the problem. 'Curly' |

To clarify, did you replace the distributor's-- --housing --cap --rotor --igniter --coil? Did you use OEM distributor parts or aftermarket ones? First thing I would have checked was the coil, based on the symptom that it does not die until after warmup. Had the same symptom with my 91 Civic a few years ago. It was the coil. Because the shop was messing with me a bit, I ended up getting an entire new distributor (all of the above). In hindsight, given the age of the car and other known ailments (or coming ailments) with the original distributor, I think it was a good choice. |

There is a idle air valve on the front top of the intake manifold, try
taking it off and clean carbon out of it.
