Recently, I purchased a '95 Civic DX with about 226k on it. When I
first got it, when the engine was cold it would have a roaming idle
between 500 and 2k RPM. I cleaned the IACV and also cleaned and closed
the FITV. Well, it stalled after I did that, so I opened the FITV up a
bit and it idles low and I have to feather the gas pedal to keep it
going. But, even then, if I slam on the throttle I get surging and
almost no throttle response.
After it's at running temperature, it runs great. If warm, it fires up
and idles/drives strong. It does burn a lot of oil in first and second
at 4k+. And also there is a slight squealing noise when ****fting
(timing belt loose?). I've been told that it may be the ignition
control module. So, I'm going to swap the one out of my CRX tomorrow
and see if that helps any.
I have an '88 CRX si so I'm not new to Hondas, just these particular
problems.
Thanks in advance
