That sounds about right. What year is it? My 99 Idles about 800RPM warm, maybe 1200 cold? My 93 Idled at about 700 if I remember correctly. If you have a hayes I think it tells you the right RPM your engine should be running at.

my '94 EX idles at about 700 rpm or so when warmed up. I've noticed lately that the car seems to shake quite a bit when idling. You can feel it through the steering wheel/shifter. Is this very common for the Accords, or is there anything I can do about this?

I think sometimes it might actually be closer to 500 in mine. Easiest way to adjust the idle?

my 93 accord idles at 650 when warmed up, and 550 when the a/c is on. Too low for my taste...
