How to cool off a Honda Civic DX?
Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and wait 2 seconds. Start the engine.

Let the engine idle for about 5 minutes with the throttle fully closed.
Why does my Honda Civic Rev so high at 70?
3500 at 70mph is NOT high, atleast for a honda. I have an LS tranny in my hatch and I’m at about 4000 revs at 70. honda designed it’s overdrive gears shorter than most makes. This is common for honda, your car is fine.
What’s the optimal speed for a Honda Civic?
The optimal speed is whatever gets you near 2000- 2400 rpms in gear 5, but if you have a hill coming up you’ll have to speed up or else downshift, so I’d go with 60-65mph because 3000 is good enough for all worlds. A better question is, do you guys keep your clutch foot off the ground or pivot the heel?
What should the idle RPM be on a car?
Your engine should normally get to around 700 RPM after you start the vehicle, depending on the model. If your idle is way off and you have one or more of the problems listed above, then you will want to diagnose the issue right away.
What should the idle speed be on a Honda Civic?
Turn off the car. Reconnect the IACV, and reset the ECU by unplugging the back-up fuse. Restart the engine, and the idle speed should be in the 620 to 720 rpm range. Replacing the entire throttle body is probably the best option if this is the case, but that’s an expensive fix.

Your car is fine, but it’s not a good commuter for high speeds. The optimal speed is whatever gets you near 2000- 2400 rpms in gear 5, but if you have a hill coming up you’ll have to speed up or else downshift, so I’d go with 60-65mph because 3000 is good enough for all worlds.
What causes a lumpy idle on a Honda Civic?
A failing IACV will result in a hunting idle (where the revs go up and down without accelerator input) or a lumpy idle (where the idle will fall until the ECU compensates and rises it again repeatedly). To fix this, either replace the IACV or clean it. Figure 2. Idle air control valve
