Having idling problem with my B18C1 Engine
What's up everyone!
I have a 2000 Honda civic SI and I just recently upgraded my B16 to a B18, but since then I have had very bad idling problems ranging from 1000 to 3000 rpm's. Can anyone help me out on this?

Sorry for sounding like a newb, but what's the CEL? The Iacv is clean, however I think it may have something to do with my cable because my pedal sticks a little bit when I drive.

check for vacuum leaks as Ron stated. Make sure there are no open ports on the manifold, I had a bad dile problem and there was a open line on the back side of my IM. As soon as it was plugged, BAM idle was perfect. And yea your throttle cable should seem awefully loose. Too tight can cause a leak.

Sometimes my engine light comes on, but then I when I take it to the shop my friends shop he sprays brake cleaner to check for leaks and the idling stops, but only for a couple of hours.

***update*** 6/19
Just got another check engine light and the system is giving me the following errors:
P0171B Bank 1 system too lean
P0170 Fuel trim bank 1
This sounds like a vaccum leak. what do you guys think?
