looking for idle screw adjuster

[dumestickilla]

im looking for were the fuck u adjust the idle i cant find the screw please post a pic and point to it ive been looking for it

[FishyMan]

bump.. for pics.. i want to adjust mine as well. i find it being really low at times when im braking at a ditch or something. also reverse is really low so that it rattles...


so what procedure do i ahve to do? i read that you have to disconnect something? but that sometimes it kills the car?

thanks..

if your idle is around 750-900 at idle leave it alone, if its rattling/shaking in reverse you may have a worn front torque strut.......a.k.a mount.

the rattling / shaking improved when i did spark plug changes, but i notice it to be shakey mostly in reverse.

i also notice the idle to drop a bit at times at stop lights, and what not. but at times sitting at a red light it is okay and alirght, not shaky like reverse.

perhaps i should take a pic of it after the fans come on?

pic wont do shit.

check that front motor mount....look at the rear as well.

Here is two pics from hondapitstop.




open that cover and use a scewdriver to adjust the idle.I will do mine tomorrow if possible,my idle now is only like 400

[accordztech]

thats only to adjust idle when it bounces...i mean yea it can adjust idle but u use the idle screw or fix the tensioin with the throttle cable priority 1

o,I read the article again it's about idle too fast,so,if the idle is a bit lower,is there anything that we can adjust? There is no idle adjuster on our car?

[FishyMan]

i feel it is idle, because when at times i notice it dipping a bit low when im braking and what not. at reverse also, it is as if the car is going to die out cuz of the low revs (similar to the feel of standard)..

so that's my thinking, other than that at times the idle is normal and the steering wheel doesn't shake like that.

so how do i do the piority 1? the cable tension?

[FishyMan]

bump ..

should i mess w/ the tension or adjust via the screw?

i was thinking the screw.

it has irratic idling speeds, at times its like its really low as if its gonna die out, yet at times its okay..

hey man,tried the screw one? I haven't tried yet.I think using the screw is fine,I will give it try next week.

[FishyMan]

ya i will try.. i will set it higher and drive around and see if it has helped.. thanks for the pics.. it helps alot espeeically noobs like me

[exexexex]

lol bro,I am noob too,I am waiting for my day off next week and hopefully there is no rain and I can do something to my car.

[FishyMan]

do u adjust it w/ car on? after it is operating temp? then go from there??

or when car is off?

[exexexex]

I would say in the morning,warm up your car to the normal rpm range you are having and then adjust it.What do you think man?
