ok so i made another thread about this but nobody looked, my iacv is messed up i think, when i try to start my car it just stalls out immediatly, if i start it with the iacv unplugged it idles really low, stalls when i give it gas but stays on, if i start it with the tps and iacv unplugged it idles fine, revs without stalling (but revs really bad, like laggy and slow) and seems to idle without stalling so far, so would i be fine to drive it around for now until i can get a new iacv (which is what i think is the problem)? help!

 

You can drive it

you can but why would you? you are just asking to break down.

 

it drove fine on my test drive, wont rev over 2500rpm though so im assuming hondata is running in limp mode with both sensors unplugged. so if i try to plug in just the tps sensor, it starts up for a second, then dies out, if i try just the iacv it'l start up and die out and if i try both, same thing, if i unplug both it'l idle and everything fine. i also wasnt thinking and tried plugging the iacv in with the car running (didn't do this with the tps), so could i have fried the iacv? when i did it the car made a lound noise (bang or poping i think?), stalled out immediatly and i could hear a humming noise from under the hood which i could not locate where it was coming from, humming went away when the car was turned off. any ideas?

 

up!

 

make sure your plugging the right connectors in whats your cel codes throwin?

 

sounds like we have a similar problem some one told me to clean it out but now my **** dont even start up lol id jus replace it or u might jus have the plugs in the wrong sensor? lmk how it goes for ya

 

check the simple things like if the plugs are in the right places, check any cels and correct them, and make sure it is time on the distributor if it has been turned any.

 

New TPS FTW? If the TPS is keeping the car from even staying running then I would assume that should be the FIRST piece to replace.
