Hey guys, well i got a 2000 civic ex (d16y8) just wit bolt ons and i just changed my intake manifold gasket at school yesterday and when i left, my idle was about 2200 to 2500 and i just changed my IACV and it was idling perfect. Now, after i installed a hondata IM gasket, it was idling bad....... the manifold was bolted dwn properly......Im about to go F**kn crazy already, please guys, help me out......

Elaborate on what you mean by "idling bad"

Hunting? Too low? Too high?

you probably have a vacuum leak

it fluctuates, i was wondering, you know the vacuum line that comes up threw the IM and connects to the the top vacuum fitting, it connects to a black box underneath correct? could that be the problem? because i routed that hose around the manifold instaed of threw the pain in *** hole.....?

could it be the hondata gasket? should i just put the stock fel-pro gasket on????
