adjusted tps...car smokes!!
New to this...i drive a 00 civic si b16...i recently put on a new skunk2 throttle body...wasnt aware of adjusting tps to correct voltage....friend adjusted tps for me while i was at work.idle was totally better...later when i got off i was about five minutes from work when i got caught at a light....light turned green and throttle seem sticky...so i gave it a little gas when a puff of white smoke came out and car dies...i right away pull over and check code...code 14...i get home and take apart the iacv and cleaned it out...let it sit for about an hour...put it all back together and head out for a ride..car was good for about ten minutes....then light goes on...minutes after that i get caught at a light again...i go to take off this time car bogs when accelerating..i make it home without light going on again...any help please? no clue

Did you install a new throttle body gasket and if so did you put it on correctly? They can fit two ways and the holes don't line up real well if you don't do it right Sounds like you're blowing coolant through into the intake manifold, which is indicative of a bad gasket or improper installation of the TB.
