B20vtec; Alternator & Throttle PROBLEMS!!!
Hey you guys i've just recently swap in a b20vtec into my 96 civichatch back and everything is running fine except that I have 2 problems...
<U>PROBLEM #1</U>
SOLVED!
<U>
PROBLEM #2</U>
when i first start up the car and give it some gas when its in neutral....the rpm raise by it self from 1000-3000 then everything after that i can rev on my own....but when it decelerates it stop's at 1500 n bogs from 1500-1700 back n' forth. The only way i can get it to idle back right is to put my foot under the pettle to decellerate it, I've also tried maybe different times to adjust the throttle cable but that doesnt seem to work and doesnt look like its gettin stuck on anything....any ideas!?!?!

Problem #1: Double check your connections to the alternator. I've actually had the o-ring piece connector break from the wire before. After I fixed it, I found out that I burnt out my alternator because it was running while disconnected.
ok the damn throttle problem is pissing me off now! haha ....i dont seem to get any gas newhere before 1500rpm? the only way for me to get my rpm to raise is to fool it! but when i do that it takes a couple sec than slowly climbs to 1500 ....but 1500rpm n beyond i get full throttle and can rev to whatever i want. I was wondering if you had any idea what could be the cause of this happening? would it have anything to do w/ timing or because i have aftermarket cam's....anything like that?
sounds like you have a vacumm leak. are you running any codes? get some carb cleaner and spray it around the tb and intake manifold while the car is on. if the car shuts off then u have a vacumm leak. also check ur idle air control valve, adjust tps

check for any loose hoses.. if you have an extra fpr change it... clean your injectors...make sure you use the right ecu manual=manual, auto=auto..i tried using an auto ecu for my manual and it was bogging all the time.. check your tps sensor..oh yeah also check your timing.. i have no problems with my setup and ive been running it for 2k miles now..
