high idle slowly drops to normal...My b16a is having yet another problem. : P i changed the coolant temperature sensor the other day after breaking it while fixing timing belt and adjusting timing. well drove fine for a few days now its idling at like 2k or so and it will gradually drop to normal very slowly. If i turn on my ac it will drop quicker. anyone think it could just be air bubbles? idk. i just want to get some other opinions before i go out in the morning and check the iacv and the fitv.

also anyone every painted their door panels with duplicolor?

why yes it is air bubbles. bleed the system. was it doing this before you changed your coolant sensor. If no then it is air bubbles.

there is a thread on honda-tech on how to bleed it correctly.

if it is not that then here is the link to do the rest of the problem
