because the TPS= throttle position sensor, and when might when out thats what it did. It Might be an IACV. i couldnt clean or repair it, i ended up having to buy a new throttle body well used. honda wanted to much for the sensor

hey....i hope you scraped the old gasket off the throttle body you got from me if not that is probably your entire problem guess i should have told you

i did that and it it worked somewhat last night, it was idling at 1,000 rpm. but then today i took it out and it was idling really high, like 2,500 and 3,000 then after i drove it for 10 minutes it went down to 1,500. still not as low as i want it. any ideas?

loosen the throttle cable?

Do an intake pressure test and find out where the leak is. Check the voltage on the TPS and make sure its within spec.

i would i do an intake pressure test? i hear a hissing sound coming from near the firewall, it sounds like its coming from the EVAP canister, but i tightened all the hoses going into that and that wasn't it. how can i find out where this leak is coming from?

splash some baby powder back there.

Check FITV. pull your intake off. On the inside of the throttle body you will see a small hole. Plug it with your finger. If idle goes down to normal. FITV needs to be opened up and tightened.

check and make sure your throttle cable aint too tight like umm... uh dave i think said if you can push it the oppisite way it opens and the idle goes down then thats your problem

i dont have an FITV and i unhooked the throttle cable and its still idling high. someone on anotehr forum suggested i adjust the distributor and that worked but only dropped it 300 rpm. its still idling a little over 1,000 which is liveable but still lookin for what the problem is.

quick question that may be related to this... is this hose connected right?
its a vacuum hose going from the charcoal canister to the intake manifold.



i just noticed that i mounted my purge control solenoid from my y8 onto the underside of the intake manifold, the electrical connector is plugged in and it has 2 nipples on it, i thought that might be the problem but i plugged them both up and it didn't affect anything.

i was wondering if the hose above goes to the one of the nipples on the purge control soleniod and then then other nipple goes to the intake manifold? can someone check their b-series to see where that hose on the back of the IM goes to? thanks.
