Hi guys,

I recently took the throttle body off and iacv an gave them a clean with a throttle body cleaner, i put it all back together.

But i accidentally knocked the throttle position sensor so the idle was bouncing up an down, I calibrated the tps back to standard 4.5v WOT 'wide open throttle' and .48v CT 'Closed throttle'

And now i start the car up it will idle fine, but as soon as i touch the throttle it will rev to 3k at idle or when the clutch is engaged,

the car drives normal when in gear an i just replaced the alternator belt today not sure if that changes anything.

btw the car is a eg5 with a jdm b16a

Any help would be very helpful
Cheers

I'm having a similar problem with my d16y4 in my ek1.

My revs surge from low to high on idle, could be the same problem as this.

have you cleaned out and inspected the fast idle control valve - under the throttlebody?
(FITV for short)

I have found the problem, the throttle rotor with the spring attached is getting stuck at 3,000rpm whenever i touch the throttle, The spring is very loose an need to be tight like this one - http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn195/novaboy1964/IMG_0506.jpg but the problem is the 11mm nut on the rotor just keeps spinning freely an wont come off, which makes it hard to re tension the spring. o well i gotta work over the weekend so ill attempt it again on Monday.

Thanks for the help guys and Saint i don't have a fitv on my throttle body.
