Searched: D16z6 SOHC VTEC Idle Problems
Hello H-T,
1) I recently swapped a Z6 into my '91 Sedan. At first, it was running and idling fine, now a few weeks later when I start it in the morning it revs up to 2k and stays there for a few miles until I guess it warms up. Then my rpm gauge starts to bounce from 1.5k to 2k before it finally settles just under 1k.
2) Also, what part of the block is prone to leaking oil. I recently noticed my block is covered in oil. Maybe it's the valve cover seal???
Could it be a vacuum leak? TPS sensor? Any ideas? Any expert input would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance gentlemen!
