weird idle issues annoying

[maaaaark]

What tuning software was used to program the chip?
Do you know what program is even on the chip?

no idea bro

Your ignition timing could be to far retarded.

im in melb man, i had my timing checked now. hopeefully it fixes the problem however my mechanic still couldnt find the hunting idle problem. darn

Same issue here, b18c2 standard I/H/E. Only happens on cold start, when i touch the throttle it will start to hunt until it warms up, then settles under 1k rpm.
If i start it cold and leave it until it gets warm, no idle hunt.

One of the mechs said it had something to do with the throttle body and that coolant passes through to warm it up? (maybe for extremely cold weather)
Maybe you could try bypass it? Or change to ITR or aftermarket throttle body if you're still running stock

Are your injectors clean and flowing properly?

It's called a Fast Idle Thermo Valve. It's under the throttle body. only OBD1 and OBD0 vehicles have it. It can be cleaned if it's sticking.

otherwise this might help http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...ting-Look-here.

Although in the OP's case it appears he's already tried these.

just tried pouring injector cleaner into the tank. i dont know if that helps. when i had my b18a1 engine, i used to use e10(lol i know) and i have no idea if these were the injectors used in the engine swap.

still having the same problems..planning on getting it tuned?

Skunk2 has reported idling issues with their stage 1 camshafts. Try getting the setup properly tuned. Have also heard that upgrading the TB and IM without a tune isn't going to yield power/causes idle issues.

1. Try another ECU
2. Get it tuned.
