i was going to purchase an IM from a friend. its off a d16y8 w/auto tranny. my question was i have a d16y7 with manual tranny and i wanted to know if it made any difference or not that i was going to get an IM off of an auto when i have a manual. thanks in advance.

 

im not fully sure but when i bought a new intake manifold from h.a.p. recycling they told me it was of a del sol d16z6 and my car is civic d16z6. so they look exactly alike and i put it all back together and fill the coolant and it turns out there an extra small coolant line coming out of the mani i didnt notice it cause its under neath sorta. my only guess is it was off a del sol automatic but i dont know for sure. just compare the 2 reallly good look for everything. i just pluged the extra line and it work fine.

 

from what I understand and hopefully some one will correct me if I am wrong, An Auto im has the iacv on the tb and it is a three wire. A manual has the two wire iacv located on the back of the IM. Your setup is with a three wire iacv on the tb, so if you did get an auto IM with the two wire iacv on the back all you need to do is use your tb on that IM and tape over the two wire iacv plug and use one hose on the two coolant nipples attached to the iacv, so you make a u-shape.

Hopefully this is correct and helps.
