u can try to clean it by using brake cleaner. check all the vacume leak. u are running p28 ecu ,right ? and any other mods on the engine ?

 

There is a way you can clean it, like i said searching is your friend. Took 2 sec on google http://www.superhonda.com/foru...44463

so clean your existing IACV

 

yes p28 chipped ecu, phantom grip lsd, msd..
also my dizzy was advanced i retard it back to the middle but the idle is still high

 

clean with brake cleaner...so do i just spray all over it

Did you read the link i sent you?

Also might want to think of getting it tuned if its running rich.

 

A vacuum leak would cause a lean condition, not a rich condition, so deffinetely try cleaning the IACV out real good.

 

cleaned it still doing the same thing

 

i cleaned it and it still does it...

 

* slaps head *

you can allways lower your idle with your throttle cable adjustment.. chances are if you bought the car that way its probly due too the last owner..

 

u guys have anymore ideas

 

I had the same issue with my Z6 swap in a VX hatch on a P06 chipped/slotted/converted ecu. Clean the hell out of the IACV and stuff, changed the TB & IM gasket too...but nothing. TB screw was at its lowest setting as well. I said screw it! and had lived with it for a year until I got a more reliable Civic for a DD.

 

so what other problems do you guys think i have...this car is really pissing me off
