swapped 98engine in to 99
i swapped a 98 d16y8 into my 99 ex it was missing a vacume line. i spliced the line into another one. it has been running fine till recently and my check engine light is on now i got it checked it said it was the idle speed control. my cruise does not work. the idle is real high when i first start it in the morning till it get warmed up then its fine. When i push on the gas it jerks and when i let off the gas it jerks but when the gas is on it ok but sometimes it jerks real bad when i'm goping slow but in a low gear. i need help so if anyone can tell me whats up it would be appreciated

kinda sucks cause its illegal to put an older motor in a newer car. happen to a friend and say hello to state ref and say good bye to ur motor being in that car

oh and to help u out, mine did that also, turned out it was the dizzy. is it throwing any codes? theres a idle control valve on the intake mani and if u clean that out it helps a lot too.

i'll have to check those wires the code came back p1508 idle speed control is that the same as the iacv because i changed it from the one off my original intake manifold i cleaned the screen and everything and it did the same thing so i don;t think its that
