Your engine is a D16Y yeah?
My idle was foobar'd as well, after screwing in the FITV knob the idle went back to normal.
U have screwed the FITV knob all the way back in right?

So how do I go about doing this? I did a search already and can't find any pics or pointers on how to do it.Quote:

Thanks a heap, i'll give it a shot later today :D
yeh no worries. There are just three 10mm/12mm bolts underneath the FITV module and it drops of the throttle body. Screw the white FITV knob thing all the way in and re-assemble. make sure the black rubber seals are in place. (mine were tricky to put back into the grooves)
that aussie brand TB cleaner should be fine, i use that on my car and my friends too, no probs at all.Quote:

OK, heres the update. I've pretty much cleaned up everything possible from the IACV to the FITV...even the damned VTec solenoid lol. Then I did as eurodude advised and did the ECU self diagnostic. Bloody thing came up with a MAP sensor error.
If I put a new MAP sensor in, do i have to reset the error in the ecu??
If thats the case then I went to honda wreck for nothing the other day...coz I simply attatched a new one to test and didn't bother resetting the ecu. It failed as usual with the revs still jumping up and down.
Whats the go on this? Reset or not reset?
you have to reset the ECU to clear the code. Do it and then get back to us.
Here's an update. The ECU was completely foobard. Replaced it and is an smooth as silk. No problems now cept for it throwing a code 14 (IACV) but that can be fixed quite easily :D Thanks for listening to my seemlessly never ending story!
Cheerz!
CASE CLOSED!!!
awsome
so is this thread :)
