Default So I finally got to start it up! (B18c1 crx - It's about time. Long post...)

Last night, after working until 6am on my CRX, I went to crank it over (it's been sitting for 8 months!) and it wouldnt crank. I figured I needed a ground from the tranny to body but I was too tired to do any more.

I got up at about 11 today and went and bought a ground wire. Turned the key and it turned over a few times. Sounded MEAN but it still wouldnt start.

...then I realized I hadnt plugged the obd0 ecu plugs into my obd0-obd1 conversion harness I had run all the other wires, but hadnt plugged those in.

Plugged those in, cranked it over for a few more minutes and got the fuel moving and it finally fired up. However, the line on my fuel rail was loose and i was leaking fuel everywhere. I tightened that up and fixed that, but it still idles at 2000 rpms for a few seconds and then shoots up to 3000.

I'm also throwing a code 9 - CYP sensor, but its a brand new Distributor King dizzy!

Any ideas? I've backed the idle screw all the way out and that didnt change anything. Messed with the throttle cable too but no luck.

I'll update this post as I progress and get pictures asap.

I unplugged the IACV and it idles steady at 2500 now, instead of shooting up to 3k...
