i have a del sol with a b18c1 freshly rebuilt and put back in the car....the problem im having is a high idle.

first when we put the motor back in it had a real bad sporadic idle but that has since gone away (after replacing the throttle body gasket) right after we replaced the gasket we were getting a leak from where the throttle body meets the intake manifold.

Now im not getting a leak from the throttle body anymore but the car is idling around 2000rpms, which I know is usually a vacuum leak.

My question is, the distributor still needs to be timed, I got a timing light today and plan to do it tonight, if the distributor is too far advanced or out of time could that cause it to idle high? Or should I keep searching for another vacuum leak along with timing it?

 

nevermind i found another leak on the throttle body....****. Well i put the new gasket on and its still leaking....so do you think RTV will help?

 

damn my ***** doin that to but i got a b18a1 mines the iac valve

 

get a new throttle body if it comes down to it
