Huh? The meter only displays two digits? So what does 1,200 rpm look like on the meter's display? And 1,150 rpm?
I'm having a hard time visualizing the fluctuations you mention. I suspect having the air cleaner lid off would make the actual idle unstable. Looking at the Honda Service Manual I'm sure the procedure should be done with the air cleaner buttoned up. Adam...?
Was the meter set on 2, 4, or 8 cylinders? Each spark plug fires twice during the four stroke cycle (4 cylinders, 2 coils - 1 wasted spark/cyl/cycle).
This doesn't sound like a very accurate measurement...
