well, you need a "electronic air control valve" from ACURA....

part number 36450-pr4-a01 (91 integ LS, only obd0 dohc b series)

here are the part numbers for all parts i THOUGHT you could use, but it turns out you need it from 91 integra.

91 civic SI 36450-pp4-e01
94 civic DX 36450-p08-004 (you used this one, it is WRONG)
00 civic SI 36450-p2j-jo1 (OBD2 B16)
95 del sol vtec 36450-p30-000 (OBD1 B16)
91 integra LS 36450-pr4-a01 (CORRECT PART!)
93 integra GSR 36450-p28-a01 (OBD1 B17)
93 civic EX 36450-p28-a01 (SAME PART NUMBER as above)

RETAIL is about $171.56 each... i can get em for $113.21

or a wire could be loose.... i would check that BEFORE buying.

 

been watching this post. NIce that both of you wroked this out.
I would take streetwerks help as he is trying to give you a helping hand. Try to solve the problem offline if it consists of 2 of you guys from the same forum.

so the one from my d15b7 is not compatable?? cuz when i swapped em it really didnt change anything...is there a difference between an eacv or iacv...is the one that was on the car when i got it from u from a 91 teg ls...im hoping it is just a loose wire and i can put the old one bck...i havent had time to check the wiring yet..hopefully i can get that done tomorrow.....i put synthetic back in today and at least now it doesnt die when its cold still revs pretty low though...it seems like when i fix the iacv problem it should be worry free..

i guess it is NOT compatable...
there is no difference... HONDA/ACURA dealerships will call it a electronic control valve... other people call it iacv its the same part.
no, the part you got is from the JDM B16.... im sure its the same part number as the 36450-pr4-a01 or maybe have pr3 in the middle..... but it should be the same part.

 

damn...that sux..well i guess i gotta check the connections for sure tomorrow..cuz who knows the old one might still be good??? ummm you wouldnt by any chance know who makes a good complete rebuild kit for the y1 tranny do you?? ?i was planning on going to the california speedway with my homies on saturday to run our cars...but i think that third to fifth shift at the end is gonna kill my e.t.

 

california speedway is a 1/4 mile correct? or is it 1/8th ???

chances are you wont need to shift to 5th gear.... (i BARELY shifted into 4th in a 1/4 mile)

and at an 1/8th mile track, i was in the middle of third.... you'll be okay.


i'd like to see your runs in my old car.....

i ran a 8.7 @ 83 MPH at barona drag strip and a 13.4 (forget the mph) (around 100 mph) at carlsbad before it shut down.

on street tires i was hitting 9.2-9.0 depending on my launches.

 

i know i normally wouldnt have to shift to fifth but i dont have a fourth gear..just grinds and spits it out..so i gotta make the 3 to 5 upshift untili have a chance to rebuild it next week..thats why im kinda bummed

 

like i said, the time i ran a 13.4 was on slicks and cut doors, barely shifted into 4th....

you wont have a problem at the track.... you'll be in the top of 3rd gear, thats about it.

 

well i put my old 15's on today...wrapped in falken ziex...should help out a bit for hook up tomorrow...im thinking of droppin the clutch at around 4000..cuz of my weight i think its necessary..i really havent had any chance to try to launch this thing since i got it so i guess im gonna go find a street tonight and try to find the best launch rpm...what did u launch it at?..dont wanna be embarrased tomorrow u know

 

on street tires i would do anywhere from 3000-4500 depending on the track...

not sure how sticky fontana is, so i couldnt tell you. just try at 4000 and see how the car reacts, then go from there, practice makes perfect.


take some pics of it on the 15s..... (steelies or aftermarket?) if its steelies, DONT LOL

get some pics at the track though, that would be sweet.

 

not stir **** up but your going to rebuild that transmission yourself but cant troubleshoot the iacv problem? I would rethink that.

 

well a buddy of mine down has done it many times before and hes gonna be there to show me what exactly has to be done...no the 15's i got are the fittipaldi star lookin ones painted flat black..i got pics of it on my computer but whenever i try to add pix on we-todd-did-racing the page ***** up and i cant upload anything...if someone else knows a good website i can use let me know...damn joe they wouldnt let me run at the track today because i only had one lock on my hood...i was heated payed 20 bux just to get denyed at tech..oh well i still spanked the homies b20/b16 head ek hatch when we were leaving...there were sum sick *** rides today too..we went to the street legals at california speedway..


oh yeah and by the way the iacv was good this whole time just a faulty connection...swapped my old one back on when we found the problem...finally idles right on startup

so the car is good.
AMPYR_one, welcome to the world of old, swapped, modified Hondas.
be glad that you bought the car off as honest a guy as Joe.
glad to see that the car is working out OK.
guess what, cable b-series trannies suck, at least they do after so many hundreds of thousands of hard-driven miles that most of these engines & trannies have seen. i am rebuilding an s1 right now. i wish you luck, and i'll need some of the same myself.
rebuild kit is $220 from gear-speed.com

 

yeah im glad its runnin ok now too
thanks for the info on the rebuild kit..i havent really had too much time to search around...so that helps me out a lot...does that include everything?

 

the kit includes all bearings & seals.
beyond that, i do not know for sure, but i do plan on ordering it, so i'll find out.

 

oh ok...let me know when u get it whats included and especially whats NOT included...

 

i just ordered it. it is $225 and includes all the seals and the main & countershaft bearings.
it does NOT include the differential bearings. they are $4o each and you need 2.

 

i'd buy a trans from hmotors for $350 and have a backup for parts.

makes sense to me..id pay 125 more ne day to get a newer tranny with factory lsd...

 

my thought process is that any of these trannies is going to need a rebuild at some time, so i might as well do it myself and learn about the stuff at the same time.
i figure there is no replacement for fresh bearings.
kinda like:
would you re-use a head gasket?

 

thats kinda what i wanted to do..but honestly it just saves me time to order one...plus it comes with an lsd
