    My car is 97 civic, when I stuck in traffic for more than 5 or 10 mins, the
    idle speed will be rised up to 1500-2000rpm from normally 600-700rpm, and
    this only happend in summer, hot days! I never faced this problem in winter
    or other seasons.
    When I get out from the traffic and everything will back to normal and
    feels good.
    Did anybody get the same experience?
    Thanks!

    Sounds like you might be over heating. Check and make sure your radiator fan
    is working.
