Icon3 Why..why..why..does this happen?

Ok..here i sit wondering whats going on now ,..so today i put a new starter in, and did a compression test...now i have a CEL....and my rev limit is like 6500 which would be ok, except i have a b18c1 in there and those of you who have the same motor know that its rev limit is much higher...also we changed the oil too,..or i should say the tech that works in my garage did all this work...oh and one last thing, its ideling a little higher now about 1100 rpm...and my odb2 scanner cant communicate or see the CEL...or so i was told...anyone out there have any ideas?????

it would be less stressful to the eye if you could type in proper format so we can understand you clearly.

make your post names more specific you will get more help. state your problem not your life story

try cleaning your iacv may help may not but never hurts
