I'm having the same problem in my 1997 Civic DX. I just had a tune up with new spark plugs, wires, distributor cap & rotor with 89 octane gas and I"m still getting the same problem! Then I cleanned my AEM - K&N filter also.
I think I will now change the fuel filter and that little PCV part and hopefully that should make a difference.

Beginning somewhere around '96 Honda got rid of the FITV & incorporated it's job into the IACV. Clean out the IACV, then maybe you'll have to set the base idle.

Normal tune-up stuff like spark plugs isn't a bad idea either.
