So after my del sol warms up lately it will idle at like 500\450rpm. It hasnt done this b4 and im wondering if its ok or not. Its a 1997 del sol si sohc v-tec with only 50k miles so.. im like whats going on here.. thanks

 

if it idles irradically then you may have a vaccume leak or maybe its just the iacv but if its idling constantly at like 450-500 you can just adjust the idle.

Theres a little screw on the intake mani used to adjust the idle

 

thanks man is it a bolt or can i just use a screwdriver?

 

all you need is a screw driver.. it should be around 6-700 rpms

 

you can use a screwdriver. flat head. you might want to change your pcv valve. had the same problem when i first did my swap, came out to be a bad pvc valve.
like $3 to fix.

 

Thanks guys

 

checjk your spark plugs

 

when my car is warm and has minimal electrical use, it idles at 300. OP, i want your car!!!!! Mine has 238k.

 

I'd say its just your idle screw, i polished my intake and messed with that screw and didnt know, but car would'nt idle. lol. the screw fixed it?
