sticking/high idle
b16a: Idle is sticking or hanging up around 2-2500 rpm's. I gotta tap the gas good to get it to drop back down to 1.
Started a week ago at the tail end of a 6 hour drive.
what could be causing this?

could be that the throttle cable might be a little too tight. or.. a slight vacum leak. i know on the b16a2's theres a vacum port on the back of the manifold which is infamous for high idle cause.

Re: sticking/high idle (sick hatchem)
my car does it too sorta. little underneath 1000rpm. might be able to fix it using a screw driver (cross) to turn the idle screw.

Re: sticking/high idle (Jaesung)
Its not an idle adjustment issue. I'm pretty sure its a sticking valve or something because it seems to reflect the weather.

Remove the throttle body and clean it. Maybe it's sticking. Don't forget to use a new gasket when you put it back on.

Re: sticking/high idle (JRI94)
Throttle body was off and cleaned about 2-3 months ago, so i probably not gonna tear that all apart yet.
I cleaned the pcv vavle and it didnt seem to make much (if any ) difference. I probalby end up replacing that if i get around to it this weekend.
