Default New here i need help please

ive searched on here about erratic idle and use the guides on here to clean out the iacv and the fitv. my problem is that i have a LS OBD1 swap with minor mods (intake, headers, and exhaust) the car idle will bounce ranging 400-500 rpms then drop till it feels its gonna give out. eventually the car does die out and i have to wait a minute or two to restart it. i took it to a honda shop for a diagnostic and he told me i needed a new ignition switch and that slight bouncing is normal. i already changed the spark plugs cap and rotar. plz help.

How many headers you using? That might be your problem right there. B18's don't respond well to more than one header.

You've never seen the V6 Civics? C'monnnn man.


To the OP, check your TPS. Thats a common cause of an irratic idle on Integras.

Well excuse moi!

He said LS, I assumed he was talking about the 4 cylinder, 1 bank version. The double bank LS's are kinda rare
