    Default 16y8 idle issue

    Ok well this whats going on I have a 2000 Honda Civic w/d16y8 motor and just recently installed a Crower stage 1 cam and a 60mm throttle body it drove fine for a week or two. After that my check engine light came on and it said it was my bank 1 pre cat o2 sensor had gone bad but I never changed it out because it still drove good. Well about about a couple days later I went to finally replace the o2 sensor code and then it was showing I had a code pulling up for my IAVC. So I slapped on a IAVC off a d15b non vtec motor on there and the code went away and I eventually got rid of the o2 sensor code by replacing the o2. But know about a week later the car keeps idling from 1000rpm to 50-100rpm up and down constantly after the car warms up at idle it never dies but it seems to get close. Some please tell me what is going on!!!

    bad IACV , if it fluctuates up and down, also check for vacuum leaks

    yep iacv. u could either replace it or take the water resistant gasket paper, make a gasket to block it off. that should solve it.
