Hey guys, I'm having the famous low idle problem with my 98 5th gen. I looked and found this post:

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1937899

I found the IAC Valve connector that I am supposed to unplug, but I am not sure where the screw is. Does anyone have a pic? Or could someone give the location of the screw?

Also, which direction should I rotate to raise the idle? My car dips down to range from 400 to 500 rpm when at operating temp.

 

i think i found the screw. is this it?

 

yes that is the idle screw

 

thanks man... next stage - screw clockwise or counterclockwise to raise idle?

 

Turn the car on, turn the screw and find out. God, want me to wipe you after you go potty too?

I keed. I love newbs.

 

lol u called me a nub where u have 30 more posts than i have. dont be rude im just asking a simple question. dont say anything if u dont want to answer it.

 

Now that you know, not going off topic, but he said he was joking, and posts have nothing to do with being a newb or not. He's been here longer then you, he might have just been lurking, and learning.

 

I think left is to raise idle

yeah, there are alot of jerks! I think the jerks are the ones who either know soo much it makes their head big, or not enough where they are idiots and have nothing really better to say than just talking shiet.

be nice dic heads! just because your preludes a lil faster don't make your shiet stink any less
BTW thanks everybody else, i've never had my prelude run soo well since after finding this website/service. Have cleared up a good 20 + issues just from reading your posts.

 

I have that idle problem on my 99 SI B16. i followed the instructions but my Idle didn't change. the haynes manual that i have says to unplug the Evap pressure control solenoid valve instead of the IAC valve electrical connector. that could be my problem, but does anyone know where that is on a B16
