D19A9 ZC won't idle
Hi hopefully someone here can help me out. I have an 89 CRX with a D16A9 basically a DOHC ZC engine. When I start up in the mornings it starts but takes a couple of seconds to reach idle speed. Once I drive for a while and the engine gets hot it won't idle I have to keep the revs up with the gas pedal. Computer shows no problem codes.
What should I do

Re: D19A9 ZC won't idle (crx1.6i)
Well it's a little better now. idling most of the time. I cleaned the throttle body and that vaucum sensor. I also bleed the coolant system for air. Change plugs. Reset the ECU. Not sure which one fixed it but it's better know. I think my alternator is not charging as well as it should because when the fans are on it will still stall. I tried to adjust the idle with the idle screw but no help there.
