[accordtunerf22]

ok i've done all these things trying to fix my erratic idling problem... change the IACV, i changed the FIATV, cleaned the intake plenum and throttle body, bleeded the coolant, boil the FIATV in hot water and tightened the white outer plastic ring, pushed the down the nipple on the starting air valve, replaced some vacumm lines that were slit... now the only thing that seems to work is tightening down the idle screw till closed, but it will idle at 1300 rpms and thats pretty high for the screw being closed... i rely need help guyz im going to a meet ina couple of months and i want my car to run decent atleast... jus gimme any advice you guys have i'll very much appreciate it

if its steady at 1300rpm and doesnt bounce seems like a vacuum leak some where..

ive also read ( and happens on my car) that if your power steering leaks that could cuase it to bounce around.. but my car idles from 300 to 1100rpm.
but mostly 500 to 800

i have a feeling it has something to do with the intanke plenum or the throttle body but i jus don't know wut it is... and its buggin the hell out of me... cuz all the money i've spent on tryin to fix this motor i could've done an h22 swap

well have you checked to make sure that your injectors are not leaking. i would say on about 45% of the cars that i work on that have that problem its due to 1 or more injector leaks. i dont know if your turbo charged or not but a boost leak tester will show you where you have leaks in your system even if you are na, just put the tester on the TB and hold it open.

i don't have boost and how would i do that boost leak test wut tools would i need? and where would i be able to get that tool?

there is a little lifting valve called a PCV valve, change it, it's messed up, that causes iratic idle. Also remember to change it every 10,000 miles or so.

didn't work... anymore suggestions????

sounds like you have a vacuum leak. spray brake cleaner all over you intake manifold and t body while engine is running. try that first, and get back to us.
