Why would a 1989 Honda Accord idle at 3000 rpm in neutral?

My '89 Accord just began idling like that. It turns out that two of the belts broke yesterday, so maybe your belts are on the verge of breaking. Mine has been idling like that for just a few days before the belts broke.

The belts are becoming worn and need to be replaced, or the fanbelt tensionning device needs adjustment. The only other thing it could be is that one of the things that the belts are driving is becoming seized (AC pump, power steering pump etc); but if everything else is OK then it is most probably the belts being worn out.

Either your fan belts are going bad or your alternator is going out. If you take a bar of soap and press it against the belts while the car is running, the squealing should stop.
