Default New issues! damn ZC ha

OK so in my other thread i said it started really hard when it was cold.
I replaced the
fuel pump, filter cap rotor plugs wires coil, and cleaned the iacv. that didint help, then i went through and cleaned out the corrosion on everything i could see in the engine bay, mainly the battery it was HORRIBLE. fixed everything starts like a champ every single time now.

But when i am cruisin down the freeway say 60-70 ish after like 15 minutes it starts to miss a little like at 3200 or so. like it feels liek the car dies then comes back on then dies and comes back on...unless i get the rpms 5-6 hundred higher or lower. Also when it idles now it drops to 750 then bounces up to 13-15hundred then very very very slowly floats down to 750 again then if you let it idle for a minute or so it will bump between 500-750 any thoughats?

well i noticed that it was all nasty so i cleaned it and it fixed the problem, noone said anythign about it. I basically did it for cosmetic reasons and it fixed the hard starting issue! I had my car checked for vacum leaks and they couldnt find any.

josh where would i get anothe IACV besides from a honda dealer?

oh haha damn that rolling eyes guy! hehe the battery tested fine, just had a ton of corrosion on the postive side. i replaced the ground and starter cable and the lead going into the main fuse box, wire brushed the battery back to new and sprayed it all after it was back together with that anti corrsion stuff. IS there anyway to test with a volt meter or anything to see if the IACV is good?

From what I was told, you apply 12+v to it and if it clicks, it's good. I did it to mine and it clicked so I'm assuming it's still good.

Oops! It clicked though. Why a 9v?
