Now quick questions:
Driving with no iacv sensor for 10mins how bad is this to your engine?
reseting my cel will fix the problem? or do i need to find the problem first?

LMAO I remember when I had unplugged all my wires from my intake mani and plugged the wrong one into the wrong spot, my throttle was everywhere! haha I would press the gas lightly and my car would be going up and down all crazy, I couldnt figure out what I did wrong until I found the right map sensor underneath the mani all tucked behind

and the main thing i had a problem with was oil. honda manuals say to check oil every time you full up. if you dont.you might end up like me with a spun rod bearing
its a distributor yo.
and serious i had a my oil light going on and off and it took me about 2 weeks before i got to a nice oil change
pep boys had a bomb deal, 5 quarts of oil, oil treament foundation, funnel, rags, gojo hand sanitizer and something else haha all for $13!

Biggest Update!
(will include photos soon, check the 1st page of this thread for them)

Wrecked my passenger side of my car on Jan, 9th. It's bad. I took a turn a bit too fast while it was raining and my car spun out once, then spun half again and hit a telephone pole. luckily nobody was hurt but now i can't drive this, and i'm sitting on a spare. some of the problems i could name off the back are:
steering wheel isn't alligned straight
coupe window is broken
backseat passenger side interior area is bent/broken
rear passenger side trunk area to the passenger side fender are all affected with damage
ugh, this really sucks the only bright side is i got a job starting the 16th of this month. i just hope my car can be fixed asap though, it's my transportation to school/work now.
(well actually i'm fixing my fixed geared bike as we speak for transportation until i have enough $ to fix my car)

interior seems bent, not really broken. once i start work tomorrow and finish my semester of spring college i'll probably get a quote on what's wrong.
