FYI, no fluid goes through the IACV. nothing.
This allen screw is for taking the spring out of the idle air control valve, adjusting it will do nothing. I've had several of these things apart.
Lots of mis-information in here guys..
What is very common is people mix up the idle air control valve plugs with the intake air temp plugs, make sure you got the right one plugged in. Also you HAVE to bleed the ---- out of the cooling system, especially when you put a new engine in, it takes awhile to get the tstat open and get the coolant flowing all the way back to the iacv so it works properly. If you are certain your valve is bad you can use the one off your SI. Also, some of the 1g B16a's have the FIT valve, this wouldnt cause a code, but they do ---- with your idle.

I got another IACV but don't no where it came off of since the local tuner shop gave it to me. I think its a obd 1 IACV and that will not work with my pre obd b16 so where can i pick one up off of?? 90-91.5 integra or should my old SI motor IACV fit and can i drive with this problem till i get oney to fix it or will my ---- blow up??
