i just need to know what this nipple is attached too, its circled and its gold u can barely see it but if u could look at ur car, its easy and see if anything is attached to it like a vaccum hose
my car idles weird(fluctuates rpm when in neutral) and when i put my finger over the nipple hole car stalls its got vaccum so is it left like that or where does the hose come from

thx for any help

 

If I'm not mistaken, that is connected to the purge solenoid.

 

ok thx ill look that up

 

Yeah the lil nipple is part of the vaccum. You can try to block it and see what happens. The plug your holding might be the IACV or crank sensor.

 

that nipple is for the cruise control, they grey plug looks like the plug for the crank fluctuation sensor

 

yeah when i put my finger over the hole the car stalls and, if i keep that plug disconnected will it create any idle problems, cuz my cars idle fluctuates

 

if you put your finger over that hole and the car dies, then something is wrong. have you messed witht the idle screw on the throttle body?

 

[QUOTE=have you messed witht the idle screw on the throttle body?[/QUOTE]
hell yeah
idles at 4000rpm for good launches

 

4000? thats like almost to vtec... LOL

 

i was joking, i havnt messed with the screw much maybe a 1/4 turn max just so idle settles, almost, vtec is 500 away

 

i just mentioned that because ,maybe its closed all the way, and just idling on the open cruise control nipple. plug that nipple and see what you can do to get the car running.

 

I found the hose and put it on the nipple and so then the car slowed down rpm but I adjusted the idle screw, but what way do u turn the idle screw to higher rpm idle a bit, the plug I looked everywhere and can't find where it plugs too though any help

 

yeah it was idling on the cruise nipple WTF

 

is this is the original motor for this car? the crank fluctuation sensor is behind the crank pulley. the plug comes up to the back right side.

do you have a CEL light on?

 

the crank pulley huh, im guessing its the orig. motor but not sure cuz i ought it used maybe its been replaced, ill chk tommarow for the plug now that i have an idea where its at, thx for all the help cuz im a major noob with sensors and stuff, ohh by the way im doing this all cuz i already sold my car and i dont want the guy to get a car thats not straight you know, the guy will give me the payment tommarow, 3500$ for a 1996 civic ex with 80,000 miles
im bout to buy a 2002 sentra se-r Vspec for 5000$ with 70,000 miles buy i will stay true to civics

like i said what way do i turn the idle screw to make the idle a little higher, clockwise or counter clockwise, im sure u know this, the screw on the throttle body
