No, now that i looked into it, i might have it backwards. i need the pcv valve, that will eliminate the line in the front, now what about the little line on the back of it, and also when i go to put the pcv valve in, the holes mad dirty and clogged, should i pull the IM and clean that bitch?

Op,

For the plugs and wires I would run NGK and only NGK. Now if you are refering to the small vaccume line that is on the back of the intake manifold it should go into another sensor. I cannot think of the name, but use this diagram.

This might help with the other coolent lines that run to the IACV http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/...R+HOSE+%282%29

For the 02 sensor I assume that the header that you are using has the bung in the back near the CAT. You will have to extend the 02 wires to reach the 02. You can use a 02 sensor from a civic as long as it is a 4 wire 02.

Not nessecary to clean the PVC valve hole.. Just attach the hose coming off the front of your IM to the PVC.

I guess you learn new things everyday... even though stuck pcv valves cause problems too. Best thing is to either have one or not, if you do make sure it works properly and if you don't then you need to vent crank case pressure(catch can setup).

The coolant lines going to the TB and EIACV(the E stands for electronic) are for if you are in extremely cold conditions where the throttle plate/valve might freeze. You don't NEED them but it wont hurt anything if you don't(IMO its just extra heat for the IM), check for 12v at the yellow/black wire on the EICV plug and the blue/black wire is the "signal" wire for the ecu make sure it has continuity from the plug to the ecu plug. You should also take it off and clean it using brake cleaner or something to clean the carbon from the inside. And make the only cel you have is for the O2.

Well how much time inbetween is it when the idle jumps up and down? Mine does the same thing when my fans kick on or when the a/c compressor kicks on. And also if all of that stuff isnt hooked up or whatever, then why do you have a question about how it's idling? The iacv has A LOT to do with how it idles. Just cleaned mine and my shit idles like a champ.
