so i shut it off and started it again w/ operating temp and as soon as i start it starts hunting between 1 and 2 g's and it will will keep doing that, so i hit the gas pedal and it will finally even itself out at 1500. hit the gas again and it will start hunting again but will settle out at 1500 again. i played with the throttle and got it down to 800-900 and it stayed there for about a good minute then it would go back to 1500. shut it off and start it again and it would start hunting again...and so on and so on. i was doing this for a good 45 minutes always with the same result.

and there is way too much unburnt fuel...my eyes are on fire




please help!




I hope the previous owner didnt end up slapping some peak and hold injectors???.. post up a pic of the engine bay as best you can and try to snap a clear shot of your injectors close up of one would be fine. It something very stupid i swear! something isnt plugged in or blocked!!!!!!

- Fri Apr 01, 2011 2:40 am #247518 OK there is a mix in the manifold it's obd2 rocking obd1 parts. usually isnt a problem. but you never know... on that tab on the right of the intake manifold, put ur hand behind it and feel if a lil vaccum port or hole. also is there a throttle body gasket on right now between the TB and Intake manifold?

Did you say u had an IAT sensor?

- Fri Apr 01, 2011 2:54 am #247519 I have another feeling you dont have your Purge Solenoid valve dat on out D series motor attaches to that tab you see on your manifold. One long vaccumm hose runs from it to that Black/Charcoal Canister. and a shorter hose connects it to the back port on that manifold. Like in the pictures below.

on a d16z6.....

and it's the same concept on a b18b 97 Interga LS that i pulled up.

- Fri Apr 01, 2011 2:57 am #247520 If u have that port in the back plug it. see if the idle drops. i just pulled mines off on my hatch with the d16z6 and my idle shot up to 1500 and back down to 1000. put it back went to normal. now since u have that obd2 manifold i wouldnt rull out going on ebay and finding a 97+ integra TB used but good and clean. and the fuel smell im still guessing what it is. go look at the computer on the passenger side and give me the ECU number?

ok so you have the proper ECU.

what happened when with the car on you put ur finger over the lower hole in side the throttle body.. ?

By TNFBandit
- Fri Apr 01, 2011 10:54 pm #247659 nothing happens, if i keep my finger there for about 20 seconds i can feel it building up some but barely sucking anything in. but the top hole is sucking in all the air and it almost shuts off when i plug that hole

today its running either at 1500 or 2000

- Sat Apr 02, 2011 12:52 am #247676 so i took my TB off again to look at the gasket and make sure all the ports lined up, and i noticed this

do these ports look ok?

i also noticed that my gasket was riped :x so i'm headed to the store with fingers crossed they have one...or i'm getting some RTV

By TNFBandit
- Sat Apr 02, 2011 1:51 am #247686 ok so i cleaned up the ports to make them smooth and i put some RTV where the gasket was missing. still running at 2000 but now i have suction on the bottom hole in the TB.

ok so i was messing around with the throttle a little, it doesnt want to close all the way on its own and when i close it all the way w/ my hand it chokes out...too much fuel not enough air?

i'm thinking i need a new TB but before i go out and spend lots of money on one i want to fix it so when the throttle is all the way closed it still runs

help please!

- Sat Apr 02, 2011 7:54 pm #247878 good afternoon.

so i started it up again, and it was idling at 800! but it was a rough idle. i had it idling for 20 minutes and it used 1/8th tank of gas...while it was idling i checked for fuel leaks, vacuum leaks, stuff like that looking over everything again and i couldnt find anything.

my eyes were pratically on fire from the unburnt fuel...what else could it be? why am i using 1/8 tank just sitting at idle?

anyone please help!
