My truck's a 97 ex with the OHV
whenever I start it up It will start idling at 1000 RPMs and slowly idle down until it hits about 700 RPMs and it will jump back up to 1000 and do it over again. no matter how long i let it sit running after start up it will continue doing this. However, after driving it around for a while it idles just fine. is this a problem or should I not be worried at all? I love my ex and I'd like to fix this if it happens to be a problem

PS this forum has been awesome and I've learned so much from it. sorry if this is posted in the wrong section. thanks!
