throttle body question
i got a 99 civic d16y8 5spd
i took the throttle body off to clean it and clean the iacv....when i went to tighten the nut back to the throttle cable line the bolt broke because i tightened it too much...so i went to the junk yard and ripped a throttle body out of a d15 which was automatic...now my car is over reving at 2000rpms when driving and puttin it in neutral.When i come to a complete stop it fluctuates from 1000rpms to 2000rpms or sometimes itll just stay at 2000 rpms.If i loosen the throttle cable the rpms go down, but then my car starts to boggle..and when i tighten it back up it does what its doing now.
I am guessing its doing this because i took it off an automatic? or any other thoughts? should i order the correct one from a honda dealership?
