belfastlad123 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 just put b18 into my ek. when the car is warm the throttle is sticking at exactly between 1 and 2k revs, and its hunting just at these revs.when i put my foot under the peddle and lift if slighty the car drops to where it should normaly idle and idles fine.was thinking its something to do with air flow but made up a temp induction kit with air sensor and breather pipe drill into it and it still doing it any ideas. EML light is on too. any ideas anyone ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noodels Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 maybe clean the T/Body butterfly and clear the little holes out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 you want a little slack in the cable. so check that, just few mms.and as above give throttle and what not a good clean.but you need to check what codes youve got, thats probably going to point you towards the culprit.

belfastlad123 Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 cant slacken the cable without making it idle wrong , can i ??cleaned the icv, cleaned throttle body out with carb cleaner.got 3 codes, 14 icv, 20 knock sensor, 23 electronic load detector. what are these lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Icv is icv. The other two I woukdnt have thought you would have them those parts. Didn't think UK cars do. Do you have a socketed ecu?And idle has nothing to do with throttle cable. Should have a teeny bit of slack so throttle closes properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belfastlad123 Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 i know what the icv is but would the other 2 make the car hunt ?see the isent completly closing properly when the cable is on but springs back perfect when the cable is on.the engine in the car is now a jdm b18 with standard dc2 ecu. when i hold a rev between 1 and 2 k revs it revving up and down. a real pain when your driving.

KiNK43 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I would hazard a guess that your engine is missing those sensors.As far as hunting goes while your driving, I would start by looking at tps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belfastlad123 Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 this is the way its going when it idles normal that is me lifting the peddle with my foot. in the morning when the car is stone cold, it wont tick over untill i rev it for a few seconds.any ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belfastlad123 Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 ok have sort of figured it out. it seems jap cars have an electric load detector and a knock sensor and my car dosent have either. so just have to figure out how to sort it.either need a jap fuse box and wire it in and new knock sensor and wire it in. or bypass both, yous think its a good idea bypassing ?anyone have any idea how much getting an ecu chipped to forget about these would cost ?
