Default idle problem

i just took my tb off today to clean it and when i put it back it jumped up to 2500 rpm's. ive tried taking it off and on 3 times and it keeps doing the same. it does not go into v tec no more. and the check engine light is on for the air temperture sensor and the o2 sensor. does any body have any ideas on what could be wrong?

well obviously it seems like ur sucking air in through where the tb attaches to the IM

I would scrape the gasket off and put a new TB gasket on, then bolt the TB up

What year is the car? I'm assuming it's the 95 hatch in ur sig? If that's the case there's a good chance the gasket's rotted to **** by now, you have to replace it, but it's g2 be on a smooth surface for you 2 put the new one on :-\
