Hey guys Im new here and I have a 91 stock civic hatch. It has a d15b1 1.5L 4 spd tranny. Im new to the whole HONDA scene so please excuse me on some things. I hope I gain a lot of knowledge here and have already read a lot of the FAQ and guidlines so hope not to **** too many ppl off.lol Anyway on with some things I need to figure out about my hatch. I bought the hatch a few weeks ago for 700 bucks not too abd a price but the engine is REALLY dirty and a few oil leaks here and there I need to fix. On with the probs it has.
-When Im running in 4th gear I get a whistle/whining noise coming from the front of the car, it is really hard to pinpoint it to where it is coming form either driver side or passenger. I cannot find out where to locate where my tranny fluid is.

-The car has a pretty high idle when the clutch is in or when in neutral. I do not know how/what this would cause. I read somewhere on here about people having the same probs and to check the IACV, where is that?

Well thanks everyone for your time, and remember Im a newb to HONDA so when speaking about "IACV" please atlease dont abbreviate it or, gimme a description where things are heh, thanks

 

welcome but you want to go to the other civic forum. here https://honda-tech.com/zeroforum?id=3

this is for the 92 and up civics

to check tranny fluid, passenger side, you have to reach down as the dip stick is really short and hard to find

 

damn already screwed up, lol
thanks

 

it was moved for ya. IACV or IAC valve (cant think of what it stands for long day ) i know it is like 2-300 bucks for it

 

they said to take that apart and spray it down good with carb cleaner? Have you ever dealt with an IDLE issue? Where is that located?
