Idle drops too low while coming to a stop and sometimes does not quit jerking and sputtering when the key is off on a 87 honda accord hatchback manual transmission.

After the car is warmed up and you are driving the idle drops below 200 and dies when coming to a stop also when I turn the key off it sometimes keeps sputtering and jerking and won't quit. what gives?

SOURCE: 1996 Honda Accord automatic transmission lay-out?

Hello;
You will probably be ok for a while if you tow it, fix the leak, and change the fluid and filter. Honda makes a pretty tough transmission. Depending on how much destroyed clutch material is in the pan when you change fluid will detrimine how long it will last. Make sure yu use the correct fluid in it. Wish you the best. Hope this helps, and please rate me highly.
Thanks;

There is no points or condenser on a 92 accord, check the fuel pressure first, maybe a complete tune-up will help

SOURCE: how to adjust choke on 87 honda accord

It might just need cleaning. Spray some PB Blaster around the throttle arm where the cable connects to at the base of the carb, and see if that frees up the flaps. And while spraying, fiddle with the throttle linkage.

Where is the idler located on 1995 honda accord dx?i want to adjust the idle on my 95 honda because its jerking when i take off from a stop and my idle is low too low.

Sounds like the throttle body may need cleaning. You could also have a vacuum hose leak. Most throttle bodies doesn't have an idle screw.

87 Nova sounds like it wants to stall when I let off the gas

Could be the catalytic converter problem, especially if you smell a rotten egg smell. If not, it is a gas problem. Gas filter, Carburetor or fuel pump. Let me know if decide to get rid of it.

I have an 89 Honda Accord lx and it idles too low

The idle speed for my 88 accord lx is 700-850 rpm for standard idle speed. The stalling is a seperate issue. When were plugs, wires, air/gas filters and distributor last checked? How long has engine been running for when you stall? Is the temprature gauge high? Any lights coming on when stall occurs? I am not a mechanic, but a DYI'er. These are common questions I am always asked when troubleshooting my Honda. :)

2002 Honda Accord - slow engine start and jerking

Most likely a dirty idle speed control system follow the guidelines below to clean it.

Throttle Body Cleaning on vehicles without electronic throttle control (most 2003 and down)

You can in most cases repair this slow speed stall or unstable idle by cleaning the engine throttle valve and the idle speed control valve using a product called CRC Spray Throttle valve cleaner. Spray the cleaner into the air intake of the engine with the hose removed from the throttle body, the engine will try to stall so hold up the idle speed manually. Once you have used up about 1/2 can of the cleaner stall the engine out while spraying and turn the key off, disconnect the negative battery cable for 5 minutes and then reconnect and drive the car for a about 25 miles of varied driving modes. If this doesn't cure the problem you may need the fuel injectors professionally cleaned by the dealer service dept.
