'86 Accord LXI won't start when warm
It has been doing this off and on, but now it is constant problem and this is how it acts.
Start up, super easy no problem when cold. Idle is 1200 but slowly oscillates up to 1500 and then back to 1200 again in sort of slow even rhythm.
Leave the car run in neutral and idle will not drop until I press the brake or put it in gear, then falls to 700 or sometimes lower. CEL turns on at this point. Lightly tap gas and it hesitates. Hit gas too hard it may die. Car has now been running 5-10 min.
Turn off car, it will not start again for about two hours or until cold.
I re-soldered master relay, it looked good. I can hear it click. What to check next, ideas? Thank you
