I have a 94 accord ex, 2.2 F22B1 VTEC 5-speed manual transmission, with surging issues (surprised?). I've tried quite a few things but the car still starts and idles from 1,400 - 2,400 rpm's constantly when in neutral or car is under 2,500 rpm's.
First off I'd like to state what I've down thus far to try and alleviate the surging idle issue;
I've also tried swapping the TPS and MAP sensor connectors, which will alleviate said issue until you hit the gas / car warms up then it surges again (also I know this is not good, but I had literally thought of everything!).
I do get two ECU codes, 14 and 41 - IACV and o2 Sensor heater (if I'm correct). I've tried everything to clear 14 up, even by replacing the entire unit itself with a known working IACV, CODE WILL NOT GO AWAY!
I've tested voltage as multiple people have wrote about, the voltages are correct for the IACV and the TPS, and MAP Sensors. I would like to note that if I cup my hand over the TB the car will stop surging a lot less (still surges, but barely). This is what leads me to believe there is a vacuum leak somewhere I have yet to find.
Please give me some sound advice as to what to check, and possibly how to check it. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!
First off I'd like to state what I've down thus far to try and alleviate the surging idle issue;
- Replaced IACV with known working IACV
- Cleaned FITV (working) & tightened plastic like bolt
- Swapped TB to a known working TB
- Checked IACV and TPS sensors - working as intended
- Checked virtually everywhere I can think of for vaccum leak
- Cleaned EGR ports (three were gunked up solid)
- Checked Spark plugs, plug wires, dist. - working as intended
- Replaced Gaskets to TB, Intake Manifold (Upper), and IACV.
