So my friend just purchased a Skunk2 TB and now he can't seem to figure out how to adjust his idle? He has a 1994 Integra with an LS Vtec TypeR head and and TypeR IM, He is using the orginal throttle cable from his B18b, Would that make a difference at all? His car idle's around 2000 rpm's and we can't seem to figure it out. Any help would be great. Thanks in advanced!

 

Does the idle fluctuate at all or is it just a constant 2000?

 

Did he replace the throttle body gasket when he changed it? Probably a vaccum leak. Or you didn't re-calibrate the TPS correctly.

 

if its constant than its probably vacuum like JDM_Ej said from bad TB Gasket or something in that area...

 

i agree with JDM_Ej. did you correctly calibrate your tps (throttle position sensor)

 

Most of the time it's a constant 2000 rpm, And yes it did come with a new gasket.

get a multimeter. with the car turned over to (acc) probe the positive wire on the tps. then use the multimeter to check the voltage. with the throttle fully closed it should read .5v with it opened to full throttle, it should read 4.5v. if it does not read that,loosen the tps and move it around slightly with the multimeter still attached until you get it to read the above voltage.

Thank man!

 

no problem also could try adjusting the idle screw on the throttle body.
