do you need to bleed the cooling system after doing this?

You can, but you don't have to. Just make sure that your coolant resisivor has coolant in it.

WHAT TEH

open up the copper-colored plate on the back of the FITv located attached to tha throttle body. there is an off-white circular ring on there that unscrews loose over time. that is sometimes tha culprit of erratic idling.

also make sure your cooling system has no air in it. tha FITv opens/closes according to temperature of coolant. air can sometimes screw it up. this is sometimes the culprit of erratic idling.

you must mean you unplugged tha plug to tha IACv. tha FITv is controlled by coolant temperature. tha IACv is controlled in combination with FITv, idle adjusting screw, and ECM/ECU. but if you have proper idle to begin with, tha idle adjusting screw should not cause or affect any erratic idling problem. you can adjust idle between IACv and ECM. do tha following steps:

- warm engine to normal running temperature.
- check gauge and make sure upper radiator hose is warm/hot. fan should turn on.
- unplug tha IACv from ECM. just remove tha plug on tha IACv. idle should settle low and CEL will come on.
- adjust idle adjusting screw (on throttle body) anywhere from 400-600 (dependant on engine).
- turn engine off. remove key.
- plug IACv back.
- reset ECM. don't remove fuse, ECM will still hold CEL codes. you have to unplug battery.

also, make sure your FITv and IACv are workin' properly, and that you have a good PCV valve. tha TPS is rarely tha problem, unless you screwed around with it. and really make sure you have no vacuum leaks.

i would. i mentioned why above. air pockets can also cause extra heat within your cooling system.

i have a ls/vtec in a 96 hatch, i'm using stock harness, a friend that i knew did the swap for me and now i have to pass inspection, so i took my obd 1 ecu out and put a stock ecu in i have fixed all the other codes that the ecu had but i can't fix the p1509 code. (manufac vec.spd. idle control auxiliary circuit). i have a vixtor-x intake, 65mm edelbrock trottle body, holley fuel rail and preassure reg. i changed all of these and put si intake, throttle, fuel rail, regulator. but the car doesn't like to stay on when i put these stock parts. i put all my stuff back exept i put stock injectord but i cant seem to be able to clear the p1509 code. any ideas????
i have also cleaned and installed 3 different iac's but nothing yet.

i just got done doing this and my car idles at 800. pretty good i guess for now. i have to wait and see if this fixed my problem. i kinda let a lot of coolant out. i might needa refill it

Thanks man for the big help i was gonna make a new tread to see if any one has done this because i need to do this on my car, but thank god i looked before i did. thankz man
