I currently have my D16y8 Throttle body on my b18b because the one it came with had a broken TPS sensor. My car is idling a little funny. Can this be my problem? I have already sprayed around for vacuum leaks. Thanks!

 

im not positive but isnt the D series throttle body smaller than the B18B's ?

 

yes its smaller, its like snorkeling with a straw insead of a snorkel!

 

When i rev my motor is fine but when it comes back down... It almost stalls out.. So most likely it is the throttle body?

 

when I had the wrong TB, it was lacking power...that was it

 

What can cause my car to almost want to stall after the RPMs come down after i rev it? Thanks!

 

it might be a vaccum leak but im not sure...mine does that too

or a sensor

yeah because 2mm is SOOO much smaller

look for a vacuum leak

 

Well, did you just now put the y8 tb on it and started having this problem or have you had the y8 tb on it for awhile and you started having problems? If you just put it on and had problems then im willing the bet its the y8 tb causing it. Are'nt most honda tps sensors the same? Could'nt you swap them?

I had a CX TB on a D16z6...and I only said it was smaller, not how much smaller!

 

straw vs snorkle makes it seem like you meant as if he were suffocating it

 

I did the swap a week ago. Its a B18B into a 96 Civic EX. I was going to switch over the TPS but i dont know how to calibrate it.
