bouncing Idle, will not idle in gear
Hello,
I recently just aquired a 1984 civic CRX hatchback. I have been working on it, but I cannot get it to idle correctly at 1000 rpm. Also, unless I keep my foot on the gas as soon as I put it in gear it always dies. I have changed both fuel filters, plugs, wires, cap and rotor. I have checked for vacuum leaks. I have cleaned the carbuerator well. I see alot of talk about the IACV, but this year doesn't have one that I Can see?!?!
Is there anything else anyone can think of I should check? Any help, or suggestions would be really highly appreciated. Thank you.
