Default Weird B16 idle

I've calibrated the TPS, cleaned the air filter, replaced cap, spark plug wires, spark plugs.

the problem is that it idles at around 1k then slowly goes to 1,2k then bogs for a second then goes back to 1k.

what could be the problem?

i'm running a '00 b16a2 swap, obd2a-obd1 rywire harness and phearable.net EPROM w/ p06 --> vtec ecu.

Try lowering your idle set adjustment screw on the top of your throttle body (brass dime sized).

You could also try to clean up your IACV, or some people just go buy new ones cuz they are pretty cheap i guess. Thats what i had to do when my b16 was idleing funny.

i dont' think i have FITV. the only vaccum hose that is not on is the one for cruise control which I blocked off and let the charcoal canister vent to atmosphere.

i don't believe that there is any air in the coolant, but nonetheless, how would i go about to check for air in the system?

I've adjusted the TB screw so that my acceleration is not choppy and that its not closed all the way.

i'm running a b16 basemap from phearable.net

i'm getting a code 20 for ELD which is nothing, and code 36 which is also nothing.

I have not set the ignition timing since there i don't have a timing light available.

which TB screw did you adjust?the screw on top for idle adjustment,or the screw that adjusts where the throttle plate stops?the stop screw for the throttle rotor is supposed to be preset,and shouldn't have to be messed with.at closed throttle,the plate should be fully closed,and there should be no tension on the throttle cable.the IACV and idle screw port provide air for idling.the idle RPM sghould be adjusted with the flathead screw at the top of the TB.
the ELD code does mean something!i've had cars that will barely run when throwing that code.do the troubleshooting procedure from the manual to test it.or,if you have an underhood fusebox you can borrow,throw it in to see if the code goes away.

Hi all!

I have a b16 with itr intake manifold p30 ECU skunk2 stage 1 cams
Cleaned the air filter, iacv, tps, throttle body, reseted the ECU, checked the vacuum cables, and the rough idle stay with us. The car doesnt flash any check engine light.
If somebody had got the same problem And know a solution please write it down.
Thanks a lot

You need to make a new thread, and you need a tune.
