It could be one of two things, dirty IACV (idle air control valve) or air in the cooling system. The IACV is the most likely culprit, you'll need to remove it and clean it really well with brake cleaner. It's located on the back of your throttle body.

Why would the turn signals on a 1994 Honda Accord not operate when the car is cold but operate just fine when the car warms up?

Make sure all your t/s bulbs are correct. If not sure buy new bulbs from Honda parts dept. If bulbs are correct you probably have a problem with the turn signal control module. Check all connectors for proper continuity before replacing this module as it it pricey. If you have know experience I suggest you take your car to the dealer. This is not a problem for "joe's garage"


1993 Ford Probe GT it will start but then after 5-10 minutes the engine warms up and it turns off What might be the problem?

A common problem on various ford models is distrbuter module cutout when the car warms up. This will kill the engine and it will not fire until the car cools. The module is the chip attached directly beneath the distrubuter. Replace the module and this stands a good chance of fixing the problem :)
