Default 94 accord ex idle question

I have a 94 accord. I went to the dealer in october and got the car checked out. It has a pulsating idle problem. the dealer listed that the air idle control valve is bad. I bought a used one off ebay put it on a reset the ecu, but still having the issue. I also tried the main relay(no results) I checked for a vacumn leak, could not find one. My throttle sensor is reading consistent voltage and is in range. the only thing that i haven't checked is the map sensor. I'm going to the dealer to find the exact problem tomorrow, but does anybody have any idea what's going on.... thanks

Tell them you will pay them $10 to adjust the FITV and not a penny more.


Then tell them, They should have found that the first time instead of trying to sell you something you didn't need.

Ask them how American Honda Customer Service feels about "Not Fixed The First Time."
The dealers want to pay peanuts and have Monkeys to diagnose problems

Sorry but you can't upload pics directly on this forum
