Idle Issue
So I was having an erratic idle, so i did some work to my car.
I took off the intake manifold, to replace the intake manifold gasket. Replaced the throttle body gasket, bought a new tps and put that on. Turned the screw down on the FITV, cleaned out the IACV and cleaned the throttle body and intake manifold, then reassembled.
So I no longer have an erratic idle, but I have a steady idle at about 1500 rpms, with the idle screw turned the whole way in. I've sprayed starter fluid around, and it seems to have no affect on things.
I am throwing a CEL and I couldn't get it read because I am running a obd1 ecu in an obd2 car.
It's a 97 civic, with a y8 and a z6 manifold.
THanks for any insight on this high idle.

Why can't you read the CEL??? All you have to do is jumper the 2-pin connector just like an OBDI car. Check out this link on how to do it...

did you set the tps with a ohms meter?
