Alright, i just got my new head on.. still just same ol' D15 1.5l engine for the 88' crx. I fired it up and it's idling WAY high!! like 2 grand.. how do i adjust the idle that much?? i know i can adjust a little w/ the distributor but not 1000 rpms.. that's crazy.. Anybody know anything about this?? thanks guys -matt-

Yeah, I'll answer this once it's in the right section.

You hook all the vacuum lines back up on the IM? There is an idle screw that you can adjust too. Maybe not on 88 DX's, most Hondas though. Where is the dizzy BTW?

Re:D15 idle problem :S

there is no flathead screw on the throttle body to adjust idle. i didn't find any vacuum leaks and i already tried the idle adjust screw on the throttle cable.. oh and btw.. ithought this forum was "anything goes"..

Did you warm it up and see if it drops?

Re:D15 idle problem :S

yeah i let it idle for about 5 minutes then the motor started smoking like hell so i shut it off. it might have dropped 200rpms or so.. nothing drastic
